Ipswich Town v Man United Preview
Ipswich Town’s Form
Ipswich’s rise from League 1 to the Premier League has been meteoric under Kieran McKenna but it’s been duly deserved as a consequence of shrewd decision-making in the transfer market and the result of some excellent coaching. McKenna was recently linked with the Man United job only a few months ago so it’s interesting that the new manager's first test will come against a coach who will know most of his players better than he will.
However, despite the good feeling around the team from both the fans and neutrals and their four points from them one clear of the relegation zone their statistical performance suggests overperformance. Their Expected Points position has them bottom of the table on just 7.79 points an interesting area to look at is their 8 goals conceded from an XG of 13.28 points which suggests they’re open at the back and have been fortunate not to concede more.
McKenna and his players will relish this game though, especially with home advantage.

Man United’s Form
The Amorim era is upon us and another manager will now get a chance to overcome the poison chalice which has been Manchester United Football Club in the last decade and bring them back into the conversations for major trophies, specifically the Premier League. Rome wasn’t built in a day and building this club up again is arguably an even harder task so time will be needed again, though it’ll be interesting to see if Amorim goes straight in with his favoured 3-4-3 formation from the start Sunday.
What’s interesting is that despite being 13th in the league on 15 points, such is the tight nature of the Premier League that they’re only 4 points off the Champions League places. Their Expected Points tally of 17.15 would have them a little higher in 9th suggesting they’ve been a little unlucky with some of their results this season. The issue lies in their attacking productivity with just 12 goals from an XG of 19.04 this season.
This will be a fascinating first test for Amorim on Sunday.

Key Players To Watch
Liam Delap – Ipswich Town
The English Underage International (21) and son of the former Republic of Ireland International Rory Delap is one of the best-attacking talents in the Premier League and this year in the league he already has 6 Goals and 1 Assist in 11 Matches.
He can be gotten at 8/1 to score first and 11/4 to score at any point in the game.
Amad Diallo – Man United
It’s been a strange season for Amad, starting it with ten Hag and in the starting side he performed relatively well but found himself losing his place in the team before returning again under Ruud and performing. He has 1 Goal and 2 Assists in 9 Premier League Matches this season but is expected to suit the Amorim system and so could play a more prominent role in the team/
He can be gotten at 13/2 to score first and 15/8 to score at any time.
Ipswich Town v Man United Prediction & Best Bet
Prediction: Ipswich Town 0-2 Man United
Ipswich Town have put up a few solid results late to climb out of the relegation zone and no man is better suited to setting up a side that knows the strengths and weaknesses of Man United better than Kieran McKenna/
It’s impossible to know what they expect of Man United on Sunday but their new boss needs time so I’d suggest supporters don’t get too high or low with performances for the time being.
Man United should still be too good for Ipswich though.
Best Bet: Man United Win + Under 3.5 Goals @ 17/10
