Ipswich vs Manchester City

Ipswich have lost just one of their last 28 home league games against Man City (W20 D7), winning the last four in a row. This is the first such meeting, however, since a 2-1 win in May 2001.

In what is the 30th different league campaign in which they’ve met, Manchester City are looking to complete the double over Ipswich for just the third time, previously doing so in 1961-62 and 1994-95.

Since a 3-2 win over Manchester United in September 1994, Ipswich Town are winless in their last six Premier League games against the reigning champions (D1 L5). They’ve conceded 21 goals in this run, while scoring just twice themselves.

Manchester City have won 20 of their last 21 Premier League games against promoted sides since losing 2-1 to Leeds United in April 2021, with the only exception in this run being a 1-1 draw at Nottingham Forest in February 2023.

Over their last two Premier League campaigns (2001-02 and this one), Ipswich have won just one of their 14 games played on a Sunday (D6 L7), winning 2-1 at Spurs earlier this season.
