Bitesize Prediction: Ipswich Town vs Watford – 04/11/25

Competition: Championship

Market: Ipswich Town win

Odds: 8/11 @ Pribet

Hoping to find a route into the Championship play-off places on Tuesday night, Ipswich will welcome Watford to Portman Road.

Starting with the hosts, while Ipswich might have marked their return from October’s international break with consecutive Championship defeats, Kieran McKenna’s men have claimed an immediate response. Last seen over the weekend putting in a dominant display as they stormed their way to a stellar 4-1 romp away at QPR, the one-time Manchester United coach will be dreaming of a repeat performance here. Signing off October with a 1-0 win at home against West Brom, the Blues have registered back-to-back Championships victories for just the second time this so far this season. With their sights firmly set on securing an immediate Premier League return this year, Ipswich should also be excited by their overall dominance on home soil. Including a stunning 5-0 victory against Sheffield United on September 12th, McKenna’s side have won four of their last five showdowns at Portman Road. Opening Tuesday’s showdown sat three points adrift of the play-off places, Ipswich will know the importance of making a statement in midweek.

As for the visitors, making an immediate return to winning ways last time out as they stormed their way to a sensational 3-0 victory at home against automatic promotion contenders Middlesbrough, Watford will be desperate to claim another heavyweight scalp here. Losing just a pair of their previous seven Championship appearances, returning boss Javi Garcia has seen his squad skyrocket their way into the top-half of the table. However, signing off October with a 3-1 defeat at the hands of Coventry, the Hornets have drastically failed to find any kind of stability on their travels. Including a 1-0 loss against Sheffield United, it should be highlighted that Tuesday’s guests have registered just two-points from any of their first six Championship showdowns away from Vicarage Road so far this season. In fact, no team in England’s second-tier have recorded fewer points on their travels since opening up the 2025/26 campaign. Despite reviving their own play-off dreams, we are backing a home win in midweek.
