Comments and predictions for Newcastle vs Ipswich Town: Hell for the away team

Latest Newcastle vs Ipswich Town team information

Schar’s equaliser at Villa Park was a rare bright spot for Newcastle last week, but the Swiss defender has since been forced off with a hamstring injury. Tindall said it was a precautionary measure, but his absence from recent training sessions has cast doubt on his availability.

The situation is even more worrying as two other central defenders – Sven Botman and Jamaal Lascelles – have not yet recovered from knee injuries. Therefore, Emil Krafth may have to play as a “reluctant” central defender in this match. Up front, Swedish talent Alexander Isak will continue to lead the attack with an impressive record: 15 goals in 14 matches against newly promoted teams.

As for Ipswich, they will definitely be without Leif Davis, who is serving a three-match suspension following last weekend's red card - a big blow for McKenna, especially with Conor Townsend also having a thigh problem. Cameron Burgess could be moved to left-back, or Ben Godfrey could be another option.

Ipswich's injury list is now long, including: Jaden Philogene (knee), Arijanet Muric (shoulder), Wes Burns (knee), Chiedozie Ogbene (heel), Sammie Szmodics (ankle), Omari Hutchinson (thigh), Kalvin Phillips (calf) and Nathan Broadhead (thigh).

Latest Newcastle vs Ipswich Town football review

The Jason Tindall revolution had once propelled Newcastle into the top three of the Premier League, with Eddie Howe’s loyal assistant taking charge while he recovered from a bout of pneumonia. However, the Magpies were ruthlessly clipped against Aston Villa last week.

Fabian Schar had equalised for Newcastle after Ollie Watkins had opened the scoring after just 33 seconds, but Villa dominated the second half, with Ian Maatsen and Amadou Onana scoring either side of a Dan Burn own goal – albeit a neat one – as Newcastle’s six-game winning run ended in a bitter 4-1 defeat.

After an inspiring run to the League Cup and four Premier League games in just 16 days in April, a trip to Villa seemed too much for a tired Newcastle. However, Champions League qualification was still firmly in their grasp.

Howe and Tindall’s side are currently fifth – the bottom of the Champions League places – with five games remaining, two points ahead of Chelsea and Aston Villa. A win here could see them leapfrog Nottingham Forest and Manchester City.

Newcastle are in fine form at home, having won four consecutive Premier League games at St James' Park, including a 4-1 thrashing of Man United and a 5-0 thrashing of Crystal Palace. They could score at least four goals in three consecutive home games for the first time since 1994–95.

Meanwhile, Ipswich also experienced a “four-goal nightmare” during the Easter break when they were destroyed 0-4 by Arsenal at their home ground Portman Road – a match in which the visitors showed no signs of fatigue after their trip to Madrid in the European Cup.

A Leandro Trossard brace, along with goals from Gabriel Martinelli and Ethan Nwaneri, gave Arsenal an easy win. Leif Davis was sent off for a rough tackle on Bukayo Saka, who then suffered a boo from a section of the home fans.

Next Saturday, if Ipswich fail to pull off a surprise, they will be relegated. A draw or defeat will be enough to send them back to the Championship. Even if they win, they will have to wait for West Ham to fail to get a point against Brighton to have any chance of holding on to their slim hope.

A 15-point gap with West Ham with only five games left makes Ipswich’s chances of escaping almost impossible. To stay in the league, they need to win all five remaining games, West Ham must lose all five, and Ipswich also need to close a significant goal difference.

However, three of Ipswich’s four Premier League wins this season have come away from home – a small glimmer of hope for supporters, but with memories of a 4-0 defeat to Newcastle at Portman Road in December lingering, that hope could quickly fade.
