Ipswich Town v Nottingham Forest odds: 11 bookmakers compared and which free bets qualify

Published 21 October 2026. Analysis and predictions are our opinion, not a guarantee of anything. 18+, please gamble responsibly.

Ipswich Town host Nottingham Forest in the Premier League on Fri 23 Oct, 20:00 UK time. 11 UK bookmakers are compared above. Best available is 11/5 Ipswich Town (Paddy Power and Sky Bet), 13/5 the draw (Betfred) and 5/4 Nottingham Forest (William Hill, Betfred, 888sport and Unibet).

What the market makes it

Taking the best price on each outcome and stripping out the bookmaker margin leaves Ipswich Town 30.2%, the draw 26.8%, Nottingham Forest 43.0%. That is what the prices imply once the books’ built-in edge is removed, so the three figures add up to 100 rather than overstating every result.

Shopping around is worth real money here. The average book on this match runs a margin of 107.4%, but taking the top price on every outcome cuts that to 103.5%. Unibet price it tightest at 105.3%; Virgin Bet are widest at 109.8%.

Where the books disagree

The widest gap is on Ipswich Town. Paddy Power and Sky Bet go 11/5 where Virgin Bet want you to take 39/20, a difference of 2.6 percentage points of implied probability. On a £10 stake that is £2.50 of extra return for the same bet.

Which welcome offers a bet on this match qualifies for

Every welcome offer sets a minimum price on the qualifying bet, and a short favourite often fails it. Checked against the best available price on each outcome:

Ad: William Hill: Bet £10, get £30 in free bets. All 3 outcomes clear its 1/2 (1.50) minimum, so any bet here counts.

Ad: Betfred: Bet £10, get £50 in free bets. All 3 outcomes clear its Evens (2.00) minimum, so any bet here counts.

Ad: Virgin Bet: Bet £10, get £20 in free bets + 2 x £5 Bet Builder. All 3 outcomes clear its 1/2 (1.50) minimum, so any bet here counts.

Minimum odds are only one condition. Deposit method exclusions, expiry windows and stake-not-returned rules all apply, and the full significant terms for each offer are on the cards below. Read them before you claim.
