Will Blues Cover the Asian Handicap Line?

We expect Chelsea to beat Ipswich by two goals or more. This means we will back the visitors -1.25 on the Asian Handicap at odds of 1.84, with a one goal victory resulting in half the stake coming back.

Two Teams Defeated in Last Game

Ipswich Town have suffered defeat in their last three home games. Most recently, they lost 1-0 on the road at Emirates Stadium against Arsenal. The Suffolk club recorded just 32% possession and didn’t have any shots on target.

Chelsea were defeated in their previous game, being turned over 2-1 at home to Fulham at Stamford Bridge. The Blues had eight shots on goal and 47% possession, while Cole Palmer was on the scoresheet.
