Crystal Palace vs Ipswich Prediction, H2H and Probable Lineups - March 8, 2025
One of the matches of the 28th round of the English Championship will be played on Saturday at Selhurst Park, where local Crystal Palace will host Ipswich. I suggest betting on goals in this encounter with good chances of success.
Match Preview
The "Glaziers" continue to show inconsistency, alternating between wins and losses. Interestingly, the team performs more confidently away, having secured three consecutive victories in the championship. However, at home, Crystal Palace is clearly stalling — three matches without a win: a draw with Chelsea (1:1) and two narrow defeats to Brentford and Everton (both 1:2).
Despite this, Oliver Glasner's charges feel quite comfortable in the standings, sitting in 12th place with a solid 19-point cushion from the relegation zone. It's worth noting that in the last seven matches of the Eagles in the Premier League, a total of 2-3 goals was recorded, and in 6 of the last 8 games, the team did not lose (4 wins, 2 draws).
Ipswich continues to sink into crisis — in the last round, the team suffered another defeat, losing away to Manchester United (2:3). Meanwhile, Kieran McKenna's charges had a numerical advantage throughout the second half but failed to turn the game around.
The club's winless streak in the Premier League has reached eight matches (2 draws, 6 losses), and the situation is becoming increasingly alarming. The "Tractor Boys" remain in the relegation zone, now five points away from the safe 17th place.
