Ipswich, on the other hand, has averaged 1.2 goals away and are equally susceptible, allowing 2 goals per game. With both sides trending towards more open, attacking football and a combined average of 13.4 shots from Everton and 13 from Ipswich, the chances of goals look promising. The historical matchup also leans towards a competitive edge for Everton, having scored against Ipswich in their last encounter. Given the attacking stats and defensive frailties from both teams, betting on over 1.5 goals feels like a safe bet to cash in on a likely goal fest.
