Watford vs. Ipswich Town Preview (What To Know Before Betting)

Watford vs. Ipswich Town

After acing their Teesside challenge over the weekend, promotion-chasing Ipswich Town hits the road again, this time facing Watford at Vicarage Road in the Championship on Tuesday night.

Watford secured a point in their recent match against Southampton, while the Tractor Boys delivered another standout performance at Middlesbrough on Saturday.

After a disappointing 10th-placed finish last season under multiple managers, Watford has shown resilience, losing just one of their last 10 Championship contests. This positive trend continued with a hard-fought 1-1 draw against Russell Martin’s Premier League-chasing Southampton at Vicarage Road on Saturday.

The Hornets seemed on track for their first defeat since facing Enzo Maresca’s Leicester City on November 25, but a 96th-minute Rhys Healey strike leveled the score after Che Adams’s opener for the recently-relegated visitors.

Under the guidance of former Barnsley and West Bromwich Albion coach Valerien Ismael, Watford is adopting a more stylish philosophy. Despite the departures of Ismaila Sarr and Joao Pedro during the summer, the squad still boasts plenty of high-quality footballers.

What to remember – Watford vs. Ipswich Town

Ipswich secured their first clean sheet in nine matches in their last outing, but it seems unlikely they’ll achieve successive shutouts on Tuesday night.

Facing another formidable opponent in Watford at Vicarage Road, we anticipate the Ipswich juggernaut continuing, and Watford might find it challenging to thwart their momentum.
