The East Anglian Derby returns as Ipswich host Norwich at Portman Road on Sunday, October 5, 2025 (12:00 GMT) in what promises to be one of the Championship’s standout fixtures this season. Rivalry, intensity, and goals are rarely in short supply when these sides meet, and the data once again suggests a close contest.
Football Park’s advanced algorithm — the same trusted model used in previews such as San Lorenzo vs Velez Sarsfield Predictions, Lineups & Betting Tips — highlights a strong probability of both teams finding the net and a high likelihood of the points being shared. With Ipswich holding just a 13.3% chance of victory compared to Norwich’s 33.3%, the draw market looks especially appealing at over 50% confidence.
With history pointing to stalemates and the data strongly aligned with BTTS markets, punters can expect another hard-fought derby settled by fine margins.
Ipswich Win Probability: 13.3%
Norwich Win Probability: 33.3%

Correct Score Prediction: 1-1
Both Teams to Score Probability: 80%
The data leans towards a repeat of the derby’s historic trend: tight, competitive, and very likely to end level.
Based on the model’s top-rated percentage outcomes, Football Park recommends:
Norwich Double Chance (Win or Draw) @ 2.10 – With a combined 86.6% probability for Norwich to avoid defeat, this market offers strong value.
Both Teams to Score @ 1.67 – A huge 80% probability supports BTTS, consistent with past meetings and both sides’ attacking profiles.
Both bets align with the high-draw probability while accounting for the attacking threat on both sides.
