Schade on target as Brentford boost European hopes with win at Ipswich
IPSWICH: Brentford boosted their hopes of playing European football next season as they beat already-relegated Ipswich Town 1-0 thanks to a first-half header by Kevin Schade at Portman Road in the Premier League on Saturday. With four successive wins, Brentford are eighth in the standings with 55 points from 36 matches. Ipswich sit 18th on 22 points with just four wins. "(Europe) is extremely exciting. There is a lot riding on the next few games. Let's see what happens, depending on other things and it is one game at a time and the next one is Fulham," Brentford manager Thomas Frank told Sky Sports. Ipswich had made a bright start to the game and came close to an opener after just three minutes but striker Liam Delap's header was comfortably saved by goalkeeper Mark Flekken. But it was Brentford who took the lead when Schade met a corner from fellow forward Bryan Mbeumo in the 18th minute, steering the ball into the far corner after some confusion in the box. German Schade has now scored four goals in his last three Premier League games, while Cameroon international Mbeumo became just the third player to be directly involved in more than 25 goals in the Premier League this season after Liverpool talisman Mohamed Salah and Newcastle United's Alexander Isak. Yoane Wissa nearly put Brentford 2-0 up minutes after the interval but the forward's effort was saved by goalkeeper Alex Palmer, who made another fine save to keep out Mbeumo's right-foot volley in the 73rd minute. Brentford, who kept up the pressure and constantly looked dangerous, were denied a penalty in the 69th minute after Axel Tuanzebe pulled fellow defender Nathan Collins to the ground. However, it was a far from comfortable afternoon for Brentford as Ipswich pushed for an equaliser late on with Flekken having to come to their rescue in added time when he made a brilliant point-blank save to deny centre back Cameron Burgess. "We haven't given up and that is going to be really important to the next stage of the journey. We pushed really hard for the goal at the end and we didn't get it...," Ipswich manager Kieran McKenna told BBC Match of the Day. Brentford, who have never qualified for Europe, next host 11th-placed Fulham on May 18 before taking a trip to 14th-placed Wolverhampton Wanderers for their final game of the season on May 25. - Reuters

Ipswich 0 Brentford 1: Rampant Bees close in on European football with resurgent Kevin Schade scoring again
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) KEVIN SCHADE'S early goal proved just enough to keep Brentford dreaming of Europe. The Bees are one of a cluster of clubs vying for an eighth-place finish - and hoping that will be enough for a Europa Conference League jaunt next term.

Already-relegated Ipswich host European hopefuls Brentford on Saturday at Portman Road. WATCH — Ipswich v Brentford For live updates and highlights throughout Ipswich vs Brentford, check out PST's live blog coverage below… How to watch Ipswich vs Brentford live, stream link and start time Kick off time: 10am ET Saturday (May 10) Venue: Portman Road — Ipswich TV Channel: Peacock Streaming: Stream live on Peacock Ipswich vs Brentford live updates - by Andy Edwards Ipswich vs Brentford live score: 0-0 Goalscorers: None Ipswich starting lineup Palmer - Tuanzebe, O'Shea, Burgess, Greaves - Morsy, Taylor, Chaplin - Hutchinson, Enciso, Delap Brentford starting lineup Flekken - Kayode, Collins, Van den Berg, Lewis-Potter - Norgaard, Yarmolyuk, Damsgaard - Mbeumo, Schade, Wissa Kieran McKenna's side has given it a good go in the Premier League but they have won once since December 30 as a single victory in 16 games in 2025 has doomed them to relegation straight back to the Championship. Still, they have some promising players and the likes of Liam Delap and Omari Hutchinson will surely be playing in the Premier League next season. The Tractor Boys did fight back from 2-0 down at Everton last weekend to draw 2-2 as they're enjoying their final few weeks in the big time. Advertisement Brentford will be hoping to play in Europe next season, as Thomas Frank's side are on a roll with three-straight wins. They are right in the scrap for eighth place which is very likely to be a UEFA Conference League spot and that would be a great competition for the Bees to go far in. They beat Manchester United 4-3 last weekend and the scoreline flattered United. Brentford's front three of Mbeumo, Wissa and Schade are such a handful and they're finishing the season so strong with European qualification tantalizingly within reach. Ipswich team news, focus There are plenty of key players missing for Ipswich through injury and that has been a common theme throughout the season. If they had stayed fully fit, could they have stayed up? It probably would have been very close. Liam Delap is such a handful and loves leading the line and running in-behind. OUT: Conor Townsend (thigh), Leif Davis (suspension), Jaden Philogene-Bidace (knee), Arijanet Muric (shoulder), Sammi Szmodics (ankle), Wes Burns (knee), Chiedozie Ogbene (achilles - out for season) | QUESTIONABLE: Nathan Broadhead (thigh), Axel Tuanzebe (thigh) Brentford team news, focus Brentford's injury issues have really calmed down in recent weeks and that has been a key factor in this run of wins. They are solid and so dangerous from crosses and the forward trio of Schade, Mbeumo and Wissa have put their foot on the accelerator and have all hit double figures in terms of goals. Advertisement OUT: Vitaly Janelt (ankle), Fabio Carvalho (shoulder), Josh Dasilva (knee) | QUESTiONABLE: Aaron Hickey (thigh) Ipswich vs Brentford prediction This should be a great game and Ipswich will create chances as the pressure is off. It feels like Brentford will cause plenty of problems in the second half and drag Ipswich all over the place. Go for an away win in a thriller. Ipswich 2-3 Brentford.
