Ferret's tips ahead of Albion's game against Ipswich Town...
*In general, Portman Road has not been a happy hunting ground for the Albion with just the one victory from five meetings in the past ten years. Can the Seagulls buck the trend today?
The odds suggest that it could be tight. Ipswich are given a 2.70 quote, with Brighton slightly longer at 2.84.The draw is 3.55. So where should the outright money go?
To be honest we have to be looking at the draw once again if we follow sound value betting principles. It is the longest price of the three options and in reality the most probable outcome.
If you want to be backing Brighton (and why not!) then possibly the best return can be had by taking the 1-0 victory at 10.50. In fact you should also play that as the half-time score as well ... 1-0 Albion at 5.20 ... and then hope for an early goal followed by a solid rearguard display.
The final bet should lie in the half-time/full-time category where you should back Draw/Brighton @ 7.20. This gives you a solid set of selections with a great chance of a decent payout should the Seagulls come good!
