Aston Villa, aiming for their sixth consecutive win in all competitions, will travel to Portman Road for the Ipswich Town vs Aston Villa match on Sunday afternoon.
Indeed, Ipswich Town has yet to secure a victory this season. It began with three consecutive losses. It was undoubtedly disappointing for the team to lose to Wimbledon from the lower divisions in the League Cup – 2:3. In the initial rounds of the EPL, Kieran McKenna faced Liverpool and Manchester City, resulting in scores of 0:2 and 1:4. Even then, the Merisiders had some opportunities against Ipswich, particularly in the first half.
However, the team avoided losing in the three matches following the defeat, resulting in three consecutive draws. Some formidable adversaries would not concede points – 1:1 against Fulham, 0:0 against Brighton, and 1:1 against Southampton. The Blues have gained three points, resulting in a minor improvement in their league standing, yet they remain in a lowly 17th position.
Aston Villa’s previous season felt like it was endless. The club then surprised everyone, maintaining a solid position in the top-4 and frequently securing victories. The situation has now repeated – with 12 points, the ‘lions’ find themselves in third place. Furthermore, the difference between Emery’s team and the top contenders, Liverpool and Manchester City, is slight.
Villa’s sole instance of failure during the season occurred in the second round of the EPL against Arsenal. In every other match, the club triumphed, frequently doing so with assurance. The Lions secured victories against West Ham with a score of 2:1, overcame Wolverhampton 3:1, and triumphed over Young Boys in the Champions League with a decisive 3:0 win.
