Analysis
This is a tightly competitive fixture between two well-organised sides. Brighton's possession-dominant system and proven squad depth edge them slightly, but Ipswich's attacking ambition at Portman Road keeps the outcome genuinely competitive. A draw carries realistic probability given the stylistic balance and the open nature of early-season form.
