Brentford vs Ipswich Prediction & Betting Tips (26 October)

Not really worried about relegation since its return to the elite in 2021, Brentford hopes to assert its place a little more this season. Bryan Mbeumo's teammates now occupy 12th place in the Premier League , already 7 units ahead of the red zone. After stringing together 3 unsuccessful matches against strong opponents Manchester City , Tottenham and West Ham, they reacted just before the international break by beating bottom side Wolverhampton 5-3 . Last weekend, Brentford fell again, without merit, on the lawn of Manchester United 2-1. Back in the elite this season for the first time since 2002, Ipswich logically expects to suffer.

The promoted player is currently struggling to assert himself. Unable to win since the start of the championship with 4 draws and 4 defeats, the Tractor Boys are currently 17th in the Premier League and are 1 point ahead of the first relegated team. After having shared 4 points in a row, they fell back into their bad habits. Ipswich lost at West Ham 4-1 and against a direct competitor, Everton, last weekend at home 0-2.

Brentford remain without summer arrivals Igor Thiago and Gustavo Nunes as well as long-term absentees Hickey, Henry (defenders) and Dasilva (midfielder), all on the flank. Added to this is the uncertainty surrounding the participation of starting midfielder Jensen. The last day, however, was marked by the return to the field of striker Wissa (3 goals in PL). Bryan Mbeumo (6 goals in the PL) displays very good spirits at the start of the season.

The Ipswich squad is reduced by the withdrawals of potential starters Tuanzebe (defender) and Luongo (midfielder), from the midfielder who arrived at the club this summer Cajuste (ex-Reims) and replacement defender Donacien. On the attacking front, the promising Liam Delap (21 years old, 4 goals in PL) should take his place. Summer recruit Szmodics (27 goals in the Championship last year) is struggling to establish himself until now.
