Man City vs Ipswich: Prediction, kick-off time, team news, TV, live stream, h2h results, odds today

Premier League champions Manchester City this afternoon host Ipswich in another hugely difficult game for the newly promoted side.

Kieran McKenna’s side impressed in patches during their return to the top flight after a 22-year absence last week but could not ultimately hold off Arne Slot’s Liverpool.

Their schedule gets even harder this weekend as they travel to the Etihad Stadium on Saturday to face a City side who have been boosted by the return of Ilkay Gundogan.

City began their title defence with a 2-0 victory over Chelsea as they look to make it five consecutive League wins.

Date, kick-off time and venue

Man City vs Ipswich is scheduled for a 3pm BST kick-off time today, Saturday, August 24, 2024.

The Etihad Stadium in Manchester will host.
