Ipswich Town vs Hull City: match statistics
Ipswich Town demonstrates impressive home form with 65% wins and just 6% losses on their own turf, scoring an average of 1.94 goals per match while maintaining 47% clean sheets. The hosts stand out with a significant advantage in possession (55% vs 42%) and offensive efficiency, confirmed by the difference in xG (1.82 vs 1.29 in favor of Ipswich). Hull City, despite a solid away record (56% wins), has recently noted weaker form with three losses in the last five matches and a worrying average of 2.4 goals conceded during this period. Additionally, the visitors have a negative xG balance away (1.29 for vs 1.92 against), suggesting difficulties in creating scoring chances against strong hosts. Considering Ipswich's advantage in key home statistics and Hull City's dipped form, a home victory seems the most likely scenario, though the even level of both teams in the table does not allow ruling out a draw.
