Ipswich Town vs Liverpool Preview
Ipswich Town are back in the Premier League and already making noise under new boss Gary O'Neil. Sitting seventh after two wins from two, the Tractor Boys opened with a 2-1 victory over Sunderland before dispatching Leicester City 3-1 in the EFL Cup. O'Neil, who kept both Bournemouth and Wolves afloat in the top flight, has instilled early confidence at Portman Road. Their Championship home record, with just one defeat, suggests this will not be a comfortable venue for visitors.
Liverpool arrive in Suffolk looking nothing like the force of old. Eleventh in the table after a dreadful run of three draws and two defeats, Andoni Iraola's rebuild is proving painful. The departures of Mohamed Salah, Ibrahima Konate, and Andrew Robertson have stripped the squad of experience, and a 2-2 draw with Newcastle last time out only deepened concerns. A new ownership structure adds further uncertainty. This is a side searching for identity, and Portman Road is no place to find it.
Ipswich Town have opened their top-flight campaign with real conviction, beating Sunderland 2-1 before dispatching Leicester City 3-1 in cup action. That winning momentum at Portman Road gives them genuine confidence heading into this fixture. Liverpool, by contrast, look nothing like the side that once dominated English football; three consecutive draws followed by two defeats tells you everything about their current struggles under Iraola.
The Reds lost Mohamed Salah, Ibrahima Konate, and Andrew Robertson over the summer, gutting their spine and experience. A fifth-place finish last season was already alarming, and early results suggest the rebuild is far from complete. Ipswich's home record during their Championship promotion campaign, where they lost just once at Portman Road, should not be overlooked. O'Neil knows how to organize a side to compete at this level.
The double chance on Ipswich, covering a home win or draw, represents strong value here. Liverpool's away price at 1.55 looks inflated given their dire recent form and squad upheaval. Backing the hosts not to lose at 5.20 provides a sensible entry point. Under 2.5 goals at N/A also merits consideration given Liverpool's blunted attack.
