Two days on from tying striking sensation Erling Haaland down to an unprecedented new contract, Manchester City have some Premier League mistakes to rectify away to Ipswich Town on Sunday afternoon.
Manchester City:
Fresh off securing a monumental nine-and-a-half-year contract for Erling Haaland, Manchester City will look to bounce back from a disappointing 2-2 draw with Brentford when they visit Ipswich Town on Sunday. The reigning champions had a two-goal advantage but were pegged back in the dying minutes, a reminder of their struggles in recent weeks. Despite the setback, Pep Guardiola's side is unbeaten in their last five matches, and Haaland will be eager to replicate his hat-trick from the 4-1 win over Ipswich earlier this season. City's dominance in attack, bolstered by Haaland’s continued brilliance, gives them a strong chance to get back on track and close the gap to the top four, where they currently sit three points behind Newcastle.
Ipswich Town:
Ipswich Town are enduring a tough time in the Premier League, with their midweek defeat to Brighton & Hove Albion leaving them in the relegation zone on goals scored. Despite a three-match unbeaten streak prior to that loss, which included a memorable win over Chelsea, Kieran McKenna's side face a daunting challenge when they host Manchester City. Ipswich have struggled historically against the reigning champions, failing to win any of their last six Premier League meetings. The Tractor Boys will need to improve significantly, especially defensively, if they are to avoid being on the receiving end of another heavy defeat, having not beaten City since the 1994-95 season.
