Ipswich vs Aston Villa Tips
Tip 1
If it ain’t broke don’t fix it.
Morgan Rogers delivered us a winner for this selection in our last Villa match preview against Everton, where he tested goalkeeper Jordan Pickford on three different occasions from four total efforts.
The 22-year-old then duly obliged once more in their first Champions League outing for 41 years, and although he registered no attempts last time out in AVFC’s 3-1 win over Wolves, his 1.76 shots per 90 average means he’s always in contention for clearing this line.
Tip 2
Forward Liam Delap opened his PL account in the 1-1 draw with Fulham at the end of August, and last week’s stalemate with Southampton produced his second booking for Ipswich.
He’s committed at least one foul in every single outing so far, accruing 13 in total across his five league appearances – more than any other Ipswich or Villa player by a margin of four.
Delap will fancy the aerial tussle against the visiting central defenders, particularly Pau Torres who has struggled to contain physical forwards in the past.
Ipswich Form, Team News & Predicted Line-Up
Scoring just their third goal in last Saturday’s score draw with Southampton, Ipswich still look some way from picking up their first win back in the Premier League despite earning themselves three draws from five matches.
Janoi Donacien is the only confirmed absentee from Sunday’s clash, while it’s assumed that doubts over Harry Clarke, Nathan Broadhead and Kalvin Phillips will see the trio also ruled out.
Ipswich Predicted XI: Muric; Tuanzebe, O’Shea, Greaves, Davis; Morsy, Cajuste; Hutchinson, Szmodics, Clarke; Delap.
Aston Villa Form, Team News & Predicted Line-Up
Villa’s second consecutive comeback win was followed up with a midweek EFL Cup victory over League One opposition, where Unai Emery once again flexed his rotation muscles to guide AVFC to a fifth straight W.
The injury list continues to grow for the visitors, who can confirm that Jaden Philogene, captain John McGinn, Boubacar Kamara and Tyrone Mings are all unavailable. Late fitness tests will be issued to defensive trio Lucas Digne, Matty Cash and Diego Carlos.
Aston Villa Predicted XI: Martinez; Bogarde, Konsa, Torres, Digne; Bailey, Tielemans, Onana, Ramsey; Watkins, Rogers.
