Preview
The Sky Sports cameras will be at Portman Road for the Saturday lunchtime kick-off as West Brom travel to Ipswich in what should prove a tough test of their promotion credentials. We preview that and the rest of our Spreadex partner clubs' fixtures for this weekend below.
We have a wide range of in-play options as well as our bet builder feature and an extensive list of football spread betting markets, as well as our Acca Boost feature.
In a battle between the fourth and fifth-placed sides in the league, the Baggies will be looking to exploit the Tractor Boys' recent downturn in form and close the gap between the sides, as despite there being just one position this actually amounts to an eleven-point gap at present.
Although Ipswich have failed to win seven of their last eight league matches, West Brom will need to address their own poor away form in the league after four defeats from their last five trips on the road. However, the last time these two sides met at this venue back in 2018, it was the Baggies who secured a 2-1 win.
Ipswich are available here at 11/10, with the draw at 9/4 and West Brom at 13/5. We have also BOOSTED Kieffer Moore (NOW 7/4) and Brandon Thomas-Asante (NOW 29/10) to score anytime!
Blackburn's recent struggles have continued and this match with fellow strugglers Stoke may have great significance in terms of hopes for salvaging anything from this season. A win for Rovers would be most welcome to ease some pressure and move themselves away from a hotly-contesed danger zone in the bottom half, but they will need to vastly improve on their recent performances.
The match odds have Blackburn as favourites on the Supremacy with a spread of 0 - 0.2, with fixed odds prices of 7/5 on Blackburn and Stoke at 7/4. The draw is available at 5/2.
Cardiff host Preston in the Welsh capital here and they will be in confident mood after an impressive win against Watford on the road last time out. They will also know that with a win they will leapfrog the visitors here and give themselves a boost in their hopes of pushing for a play-off spot.
The home side are 13/10 to snatch all three points this weekend whilst the draw is at 21/10. Preston are available at 23/10. For football spread betting punters, the 1st Match Goal minute spread is 39-42 whilst you can buy or sell Cardiff/Preston on the Supremacy at 0.15 - 0.35.
Norwich are one of three promotion-chasing sides currently locked on 44 points in the table, and will know the importance of not slipping up in these types of matches against struggling sides, although QPR have recently picked up some form with a three match unbeaten run edging them slightly closer to safety.
However, the Canaries have won three - and lost none - of the last five meetings between these two sides, so confidence should be high of a positive result. You can back both teams to score at 8/11 here, while the match odds have QPR at 7/4, with the draw at 23/10 and Norwich at 31/20.
Huddersfield scored a massively impressive and important 4-0 win over Sheffield Wednesday to lift themselves out of the relegation zone but will face a much tougher test against the second-placed Saints here, who will be looking to extend their unbeaten run to a massive 25 matches.
The Terriers have been a plucky side of late and had three hard-fought draws before that 4-0 win, and also have a decent recent record against Southampton, drawing three of the last five - a result they would likely gladly take again here.
Southampton are available here for the home win at 1/4, with the draw at 17/4 and Huddersfield at 9/1. Total Goal Minutes are available at 151 - 161.
The Black Cats will be in action at the Stadium of Light to host Plymouth and will be hoping for a hangover from the visitors after they lost a tough FA Cup tie in extra-time to Leeds. However, the home side haven't been in great form of late after an inconsistent run of results which they will be hoping to address and keep themselves in the running for a play-off place.
Sunderland are available here for the win at 8/15, with the draw at 17/5 and Plymouth to win both at 23/5. Total Goal Minutes are available at 149 - 159. We have also BOOSTED Jack Clarke to score anytime - now 11/8!
And finally, we look at Watford who will be hosting the runaway league leaders and automatic promotion favourites Leicester. The Hornets will need to bring a significant sting in the tail to derail the Foxes' recent form, and recent form doesn't paint the most promising picture with the hosts failing to win any of their last five matches and losing 5-1 to Leicester in the last meeting at Vicarage Road.
Watford are available here at 17/5, with the draw at 3/1 and Leicester at 8/11. Total Goals are available at 2.7 - 2.9.
