Ipswich vs Liverpool Prediction & Betting tips
Ipswich Town F.C. will host Liverpool F.C. at Portman Road Stadium on Friday, September 4, 2026, at 10:00 PM EEST in a highly anticipated Matchweek 3 clash. Both sides are led by new managers this season and are looking to bounce back from tough results before the break. The start of the Premier League season has provided plenty of drama for both fanbases. Newly promoted Ipswich Town sit 12th in the table under Gary O’Neil, while Andoni Iraola’s Liverpool sit right behind them in 13th.
Ipswich:
Opened their campaign with a thrilling 2-1 home victory over Sunderland, but were recently humbled in a 5-2 defeat against Manchester United at Old Trafford, despite taking an early lead via Leif Davis. Gary O’Neil will have to reshuffle his pack as Abdul Fatawu is ruled out with an injury, while Darnell Furlong and Sindre Walle Egeli are also expected to be absent.
Predicted Ipswich XI: Muric – Johnson, O’Shea, Greaves, Davis – Phillips, Morsy – Burns, Hutchinson, Clarke – Delap
Liverpool:
It has been a slow start for Iraola, who is still hunting for his first Premier League win with the club. The Reds have fought back to salvage consecutive 2-2 draws against Newcastle and Nottingham Forest. The Reds will be missing key midfielder Alexis Mac Allister and defender Ronald Araujo due to disciplinary points accumulation. Joe Gomez is nearing a return but won’t feature yet. However, massive £123m summer signing Bradley Barcola is officially available and could make his highly anticipated debut.
Predicted Liverpool XI: Alisson – Szoboszlai, Van Dijk, Jacquet, Kerkez – Gravenberch, Nyoni – Muñoz, Wirtz, Gakpo – Isak
