Liverpool – Ipswich betting tip, prediction & odds 01/25/2025

Premier League, Saturday, 01/25/2025 at 4:00 PM

Premier League betting is almost my favorite! After all, the island is always offering great opportunities to benefit from the reliability of the title contenders. League leaders Liverpool and their pursuers Arsenal rarely go home empty-handed.

In my Liverpool Ipswich tip, I will be very direct: victory LFC. However, I must also warn you. Because there are some deceptive offers that could disappoint you despite the obvious difference in class. I’ll explain to you in a moment exactly what these are!

Just as the defending champions recently swept the promoted team off the pitch with a clear 6-0 win, the Reds should now play against Ipswich Town.

Such a result would not only befit Liverpool, but is also necessary if Liverpool wants to become English champions again in the toughest league competition in the world.

A win of this kind would also send a clear signal to the competition and underpin the Reds’ ambitions of challenging for the title.

Liverpool are on a fantastic run at the moment. After the 2-1 win against Lille in the Champions League group stage during the week, which I won by the way, the Reds’ fans can rightly look forward to another victory just a few days later.

After all, the team in red has already won their last three league games against Ipswich Town with a goal difference of 13-0.

Looking at this record, you could almost think that the league leaders will have no problems at all with the “Tractor Boys” this time either.

Especially since the promoted team has started the new year in the Premier League without a win and with a goal difference of 2:10 (1 draw, 2 defeats). I therefore do not expect Liverpool to face much resistance on Saturday…

Another look at a very special statistic makes it clear how strong Liverpool should be at home. Liverpool? At home? And against a newcomer? Sure thing!

Because in their last ten Premier League home games against promoted teams, LFC have won every time, with a truly impressive goal difference of 34:7.

That’s a statistic that should be frightening, especially for the Premier League newcomer, who still has big challenges to face away from home.

While Liverpool are in phenomenal form, the visitors from Ipswich really have to give their all to avoid going down at Anfield on Saturday.

But before you get too cocky, remember: a brilliant start to the game by the home side, possibly crowned by an early goal, is by no means a given.

In fact, the Reds have always conceded the first goal in their last three Premier League home games. This means that LFC don’t always find their feet straight away, but only improve as the game goes on.

The Anfield Road side usually only really get going in the second half, and that’s when the decisive goals could be scored.

The Reds’ unbeaten streak in their last 17 Premier League games, with 12 wins and 5 draws, is also hard to ignore and another reason why I would classify this favorite bet as a “sure thing”.

The only defeat this season came against Nottingham Forest, but that was a blip that happened a long time ago.

Arne Slot’s team will therefore not miss this opportunity to remain unbeaten against the recently humiliated promoted team, who have so far collected less than half as many points as Nottingham.

In short: you can lose to the “Garibaldi Reds” these days, but not to the promoted team…

If any of you are also betting on Cody Gakpo scoring, you could also be absolutely right.

The Dutch striker has scored in each of his last four Premier League home games and could get on the scoresheet again. So, adding Gakpo’s goal to the bet seems like a good choice for aiming for higher winnings without a odds boost.

Incidentally, this scenario is made even more interesting by the fact that almost all sports betting providers have estimated odds of 2.05 on average for this.

Conclusion: Even if Ipswich should try to take the lead with a quick goal, the reigning league leaders should not be unsettled by it.

Because 90 minutes at Anfield Road can be unbearably long for visiting teams, especially when the home team is playing with rage.

So Liverpool could really turn it on here and score at least twice as many goals this time as they did in their 2-0 away win at Portman Road on matchday 1.

My Liverpool v Ipswich prediction: The Reds will score over 3.5 goals.
