Bitesize Prediction: Leicester City vs Ipswich Town – 13/12/25

Competition: Championship

Market: Both teams to score

Odds: 17/20 @ 1xBet

In what is a heavyweight Championship showdown on Saturday afternoon, Leicester will welcome Ipswich to the King Power.

Starting with the hosts, while Leicester might have got December underway with a much-welcomed 3-1 victory away at Derby, the Foxes were back to their inconstant worst in midweek. Suffering a major second-half collapse away at Bristol City as they eventually had to settle for a frantic 2-2 stalemate at Ashton Gate, it has been suggested that Marti Cifuentes has some serious pressure on his shoulders. Signing off November with an action-packed 3-2 loss at home against Sheffield United, the former QPR boss finds his squad scrapping it out in the bottom-half of the Championship standings. Facing an uphill battle in the race to book a play-off ticket this season, Leicester have registered just a single win from any of their previous four second-tier showdowns. With their recent struggles underlined by a 3-0 drumming at the hands of Southampton on November 25th, Saturday’s hosts have also shown some major defensive struggles. Along with shipping nine goals in those four consecutive outings, Leicester have also failed to record a single Championship clean sheet since back on September 20th.

As for the visitors, although Ipswich might have endured a difficult start to proceedings when making their Championship return back in August, the Blues have come roaring back. Putting in what was a sensational performance last weekend as they stormed their way to a 3-0 romp at home against runaway leaders Coventry, Kieran McKenna’s men have now secured consecutive Championship wins for the first time since the start of November. In fact, despite suffering a real shock last month as they fell to a 2-1 loss against relegation scrappers Oxford, that is the only defeat that Ipswich have suffered from any of their previous 10 straight outings – a run that stems back to October 21st. Skyrocketing their way into the play-off places and knowing that they can move within touching distance of the automatic promotion spots here, the Blues should be confident of making another heavyweight statement this weekend. Travelling to the King Power pencilled in as a standout contender, neutrals could be treated to another enjoyable Championship battle on Saturday afternoon.
