Ipswich Town welcome Aston Villa at Portman Road, Ipswich, Suffolk on Saturday, Nov 28 at 6:30 PM in a Premier League fixture that's tighter on paper than the positions suggest — just 2 points split them in the table.

Ipswich Town come into this fixture in mixed form (2W 0D 3L). Aston Villa travel struggling badly (1W 3L in last 5), which may hand the initiative to the hosts. Ipswich Town head into this on the back of a defeat, while Aston Villa arrive off a win — momentum clearly with the visitors.

Despite playing at home, Ipswich Town face a side that has dominated this fixture historically. Aston Villa have won 4 of 10 encounters, with 5 draws. Their last encounter ended in a 1–1 draw. These two tend to produce goals — averaging 3.0 per game in recent meetings.

Verdict: This looks an evenly matched contest. Home advantage gives Ipswich Town a slight edge, but Aston Villa are capable of causing problems. A draw would be a fair result.
