Ipswich host Brentford in a Premier League showdown on Saturday, May 10th, at 3pm (UK time).
Over 1.5 Brentford goals
Each of the last seven Premier League sides to visit Portman Road have scored at least two goals (average 3.4 per game).
Bryan Mbeumo anytime goalscorer
Only Jean-Philippe Mateta, Alexander Isak, and Mohamed Salah, all with 10 strikes, have scored more Premier League goals in 2025 than Bryan Mbeumo (eight).
How both teams go into Ipswich vs Brentford
It was always going to be a struggle, but Ipswich were put out of their misery on matchday 34 when the ignominy of relegation from the Premier League became a reality. It took a 22-year journey to get back here, but the Tractor Boys will soon be playing Championship football once again. In reality, they weren’t ready for the big time, having won just four of their 34 matches and suffering 21 losses—something only fellow promoted sides, who have also been sent down, Leicester (24) and Southampton (27), experienced on more occasions. Brentford, meanwhile, are chasing a top-half finish, with the Bees only three points behind 10th-place Bournemouth, with both having five games remaining. It’s been a topsy-turvy campaign for the west London club, who returned to successful ways in their most recent outing, an entertaining 4-2 win over Brighton, after going on a three-game winless run (one loss and two draws).
Ipswich team news
We’ve seen Wesley Burns, Jaden Philogene-Bidace, and Chiedozie Ogbene play their final Premier League minutes for Ipswich, with all ruled out until next season. Leif Davis will also sit this game out after recently picking up a red card and a subsequent three-match suspension. Meanwhile, there is no return date for Arijanet Muric (shoulder) and Nathan Broadhead (thigh).
Brentford team news
Fabio Carvalho will not be available for Brentford until next season. This game also comes too early for Joshua Dasilva, who is hoping to make it before the end of this campaign. Igor Thiago, though, could return here following a knee injury, while there is no return date for Aaron Hickey or Yunus Musah.
Ipswich vs Brentford head-to-head
Brentford are unbeaten in their last four meetings with Ipswich (three wins and one draw). The Bees are seeking a third straight win over the Tractor Boys, something they have never managed before against this opposition.
