Oxford Utd v Ipswich betting form

Oxford United are finding life difficult in their second season back in the Championship and currently sit 22nd in the table, inside the relegation zone. Sheffield United’s consecutive victories over the past week have increased the pressure on Gary Rowett’s side, who remain just a point from safety. The U’s are winless in their last five league matches, though they did secure a vital draw in their most recent outing against fellow strugglers Norwich City, with Filip Krastev netting a dramatic stoppage-time equaliser.

With fixtures coming thick and fast, Oxford urgently need to reverse their poor run of form, but the task doesn’t get any easier this Friday night as they host an in-form Ipswich Town at the Kassam Stadium.

Ipswich appeared to be suffering a Premier League relegation hangover at the start of the season, carrying their poor top-flight form straight into the Championship. This prompted a minority of Town fans to question whether Kieran McKenna’s tenure should come to an end. However, the Northern Irishman has since silenced his critics, with his side now resembling the team that secured back-to-back promotions.

The Tractor Boys are currently on a six-game unbeaten run in the league—a surge that has lifted them into fifth place, just three points off the automatic promotion spots, and they still hold a contentious game in hand over the leading pack against Blackburn. Having won their last three away matches, McKenna’s men will head to the Kassam Stadium on Friday night brimming with confidence looking to bring back three points to Suffolk.

Oxford Utd v Ipswich football spread betting prices.

Our football spread betting prices also have Ipswich as favourites with a Goal Supremacy quote of Ipswich/Oxford Utd (h)  0.9 – 1.1. This means a 'buy' bet at 1.1 would need a two goal Ipswich win to start turning a profit (e.g. two goal win would win 0.9x your stake, three goal win would win 1.9x your stake etc.).

A 0.9 'sell' bet would need a draw or Oxford Utd win to turn a profit (e.g. draw would win 0.9x your, one goal Oxford Utd win would win 1.9x your stake etc.).

Our spread betting Total Goals line is 2.55 – 2.75. So a 2.75 'buy' bet would need at least three goals to be scored in the match to start turning a profit. Conversely, a ‘2.55’ sell bet would need two goals or less to be scored in the match to turn a profit.

Remember that with spread betting, get the bet wrong and losses can exceed your stake/deposit. E.g. a 2.75 'buy' Total Goals bet would lose 2.75x your stake if the match ended 0-0. In the 1.1 'buy' Supremacy bet example above, if the game ended a draw the bet would lose 1.1x your stake. If Oxford Utd won by one goal then it would lose 2.1x your stake etc. And in the 0.9 'sell' Supremacy example above, the bet would lose 0.1x your stake with a one goal Ipswich win, 1.1x your stake on a two goal Ipswich win etc.

Oxford Utd v Ipswich betting specials and price boosts

Price Boosts are typically available on the Spreadex website the day before the game, so it’s worth checking back closer to kick-off for enhanced odds. In addition, Spreadex also features ‘Popular Bet-Builders’, specially curated by their in-house pricing team to highlight fan-favourite betting combinations.

Ipswich have grown into their away games recently, scoring eight second-half goals across their last three matches on the road. With the Ipswich Total Goal Minutes market set at a spread of 88–96, and the Time of Last Ipswich Goal priced at 52–55, these could be markets worth watching if the Tractor Boys continue their strong late-game form away from home.

Remember that with spread betting, get the bet wrong and losses can exceed your stake/deposit. So for example if Ipswich failed to score, a ‘buy’ at 96 on Ipswich Total Goal would lose 96x your stake.
