Wrexham team overview
Wrexham blossomed under new owners, securing three consecutive promotions. Incredibly, the Reds are playing another great season, currently sitting in a playoff spot (6th place). However, the bookies do not trust them to secure promotion too much and consider them as only the ninth-favorite to go up. However, that was hardly the goal, and the Reds can undoubtedly be happy with their current season.
After a 2:0 loss to Millwall, coach Phil Parkinson spoke to the media. He was unhappy with a loss but said they are still in a strong position in the Championship. The coach said the team must stay calm, refocus, and draw a line under the Millwall loss and look ahead to the upcoming matches.

Ipswich team overview
Ipswich spent the last season in the Premier League for the first time since the 2001/02 season. Unfortunately, the Tractor Boys were atrocious, winning only 22 points and suffering relegation. However, they are on the right path to return this season as they are in 3rd place with 54 points from 30 rounds - just five points behind 2nd-placed Coventry and one game played less.
After a 2:1 win over Derby County in the previous game, coach Kieran McKenna spoke to the media. He said they described the win as his favorite of the season, and he enjoyed the performance and the result against a good team. The coach praised the team's resilience after conceding a goal from the penalty spot.

Prediction
Wrexham scored in 11 consecutive games before failing to do so in the past game against Millwall. However, the Reds deserved to score in that match, having 1.4 xG and 16 goal attempts. Another great thing about this bet is that both teams scored in seven of Wrexham's past eight home games.
Meanwhile, Ipswich scored at least one goal in eight consecutive games. So, we believe they are capable of scoring, but we doubt they can keep a clean sheet after failing to do so in the last three games. They also kept their net intact only in three of 15 road matches - a mere 20%.
Considering all the above, but especially both teams' great offensive performances, we believe that both teams to score bet is the safest option for this FA Cup tie.
4 Reasons why both teams should score
- Wrexham scored in 11 of the past 12 games
- Both teams scored in seven of Wrexham's last eight home games
- Ipswich scored in seven consecutive games
- Both teams scored in Ipswich's last three games
