At 2.8 expected goals, the 2.5 line is close to a toss-up (53% for the over).
Quality gap

How do the two teams set up?
Confirmed line-ups land about an hour before kick-off.
Home · promoted
Ipswich Town
As a promoted side, Ipswich will prioritise not conceding at Portman Road. Their best chances usually come from dead balls and transitions.
Away
Brighton & Hove Albion
Brighton combine structure with enough quality in the final third to punish mistakes on their trip to Portman Road. Midfield control is their foundation.
What would change our mind?
The developments we would react to before kick-off.
If Brighton name a weakened XI
Rotation or a key absence would take several points off their win chance; check line-ups an hour before kick-off.
If Ipswich score first
The favourite has to chase, and both the draw and the upset become much more likely.
If a red card comes in the first hour
Ten men changes the expected-goals picture entirely, whichever side it hits.
