Ipswich Town Betting Preview

Ipswich Town was last in the Premier League back in 2002, but they are back up and feel like they have the team to compete. In the leadup heading into this game, Ipswich Town have won two games in a row during friendlies. Town in the last game faced off against Nice in the last game and they were able to secure the 1-0 victory. Ipswich Town is dealing with a ton of injuries heading into this game, and that could be a major problem for them. Harry Clarke, George Hirst, Nathan Broadhead, and Janoi Donacien and Cameron Humphreys are all dealing with injuries and all are expected to miss this game. 

Liverpool Betting Preview

Liverpool had to make the big coaching change this offseason and this will be the first Premier League game under Arne Slot who is now in charge of the club. On Sunday, Liverpool faced off against Las Palmas and they played to a 0-0 draw. Two games ago against Sevilla, Liverpool was able to secure the 4-1 victory. The good news for Liverpool is they are pretty healthy heading into this game, and that should give them confidence. Bobby Clark is dealing with a back injury. Salah, Van Dijk and Alexander-Arnold are all in contract negotiations but are all expected to start in this game. 

Ipswich Town vs Liverpool Prediction

Ipswich Town might be able to stay up this year, but I am not sold on their offense, and that is going to really hurt them here. I do expect they are going to go in a defensive shape though, and their defense is going to limit things here. Ipswich Town is going to struggle to even get a quality scoring chance here. Liverpool failed to score in the last game and they are going to struggle again here. Back the under to cash here.
