What will decide it?
Home advantage first, then the goals picture and the factor with the most pull on this fixture.
Home edge
Edge: Even
Ipswich's home crowd is worth about a fifth of a goal, which narrows the gap without erasing Palace's quality advantage.

Edge: Even
At 2.7 expected goals, the 2.5 line is close to a toss-up (51% for the over).
Quality gap
Edge: Palace
Palace rate clearly higher, and the draw is only 25%. If they score first, the game state favours them heavily.

How do the two teams set up?
Confirmed line-ups land about an hour before kick-off.
Home · promoted
Ipswich Town
Ipswich are in their first season back and still learning the pace of the division. Expect a compact shape at Portman Road, long spells without the ball and danger from set pieces.
Away
Crystal Palace
Expect Palace to stay compact on their trip to Portman Road and look for a moment rather than control the game.
What would change our mind?
The developments we would react to before kick-off.
If Palace 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.
The story of Ipswich vs Palace
Ipswich Town take on Crystal Palace in front of their own fans, and the Wazir Win numbers lean Palace's way. The gap in expected goals (1.17 for Ipswich, 1.54 for Palace) is the clearest signal, and it is what produces our 46% for Palace. Ipswich's best route is to keep it level into the last half-hour, when the draw becomes a live result.
