Ipswich vs Nottingham Forest preview, prediction

Ipswich have taken just two points in nine Premier League games to start 2025, a run that could cost them their top-flight lives if they don’t turn it around very soon.

The Tractor Boys just took third-place Nottingham Forest to penalties in the FA Cup, and that was at the City Ground earlier this month. Forest won’t be caught off guard in this rematch at Ipswich.

Forest just beat Man City a week after drawing Arsenal, and second place is looking like a real possibility despite a dry spell that saw Forest go 1W-3L in match weeks 23-26.

The Tricky Trees are just four points back of the Gunners and are four clear of Chelsea and Man City. The Champions League is a real option, but three points against Ipswich are part of that plan.

Ipswich are due for a win. They may only have three but the list includes Chelsea and Spurs, so taking care of Forest is far from an impossibility. Their first meeting was a 1-0 Forest home win in the league before the FA Cup tie went to penalties earlier this month. Could Liam Delap be set for an end to his dry spell? Ipswich 1-1 Nottingham Forest.
