Ipswich Town travel to Old Trafford on Sunday looking for a rare win at a ground where they’ve triumphed only once in their last eight visits.
Gary O’Neil’s side arrive full of confidence after beating Sunderland with a stoppage-time winner on the opening weekend of their return to the top flight, and a marquee new arrival adds to the occasion.
Ipswich Town team newsAzor Matusiwa and Jack Taylor “won’t be involved,” O’Neil confirmed, while Jaden Philogene is “week to week” with his ankle issue. Florentino Luís remains a doubt, with O’Neil saying: “We’re hoping Florentino might be back,” though he stopped short of confirming his involvement.
Exequiel Palacios, signed from Bayer Leverkusen this week for a reported fee in the region of £20m, is set to feature after training with his new teammates. O’Neil confirmed: “I’m sure we’ll see Exequiel on Sunday.”
Dara O’Shea and Marcelino Núñez, who scored twice, including a 45-yard strike against Sunderland, are both expected to start for a third successive match, while Jack Clarke — whose 90th-minute winner sealed victory over his former club — is pushing for a recall from the bench.
Ipswich Town predicted lineupIpswich Town possible starting XI (4-2-3-1): Scherpen; O’Shea, Diop, Greaves, Davis; Núñez, Lukic; Clarke, Enciso, Maeda; Emersonn
