Fixture: Ipswich vs West Ham
Date: Sunday 25 May 2025
Kick-off: 16:00 BST
Venue: Portman Road

This match marks the end of a challenging season for both teams, with Ipswich already relegated and West Ham looking to finish on a high note. Expect West Ham to dominate possession and create numerous scoring opportunities, while Ipswich will look to counter-attack and make the most of their home advantage.

Given the disparity in form and the impact of injuries on Ipswich, West Ham are likely to secure the victory. The Hammers' attacking prowess, led by Bowen and Kudus, should be too much for the depleted Ipswich side to handle.

• Jarrod Bowen vs Dara O'Shea: Bowen's pace and finishing ability will be crucial for West Ham, and O'Shea will need to be at his best to contain the forward.
• Sam Morsy vs Tomas Soucek: Morsy's role in breaking up play and distributing the ball will be vital for Ipswich, while Soucek has the physicality to trouble the home defence.
