Life under new manager Ruben Amorim should be different to what United was used to in Erik ten Hag's tenure.
An impact win is what Amorim is after, and his boys will look to deliver. Man United will not just want the points, but a performance as well, so I expect goals in this game. Here are my Ipswich vs. Man United predictions and free soccer picks for Sunday, November 24.
EPL predictions for Ipswich vs Man United
My best bet:
Manchester United to win (-162 at TonyBet)
My analysis
Manchester United players took to social media to highlight Amorim's instant effect on the team. Among them were Casemiro and Marcus Rashford, two important first-team members, who had positive comments after training under Amorim for the first time. The Portuguese will look to change the playing style as soon as possible. He wants intensity and speed from his boys, so we could see some of the elements that Amorim regards as definitory to his tenure applied as early as Sunday.
Ipswich Town are fresh from a shock win in North London against Tottenham, marking their first campaign triumph. Newly-promoted Ipswich sit 17th in the Premier League, with eight points in 11 games. United is not doing too well either, as they are now 13th, on 15 points. But they've been doing well since Ten Hag's sacking. Interim manager Ruud van Nistelrooy oversaw United, winning three games and drawing one since the end of October.
Man United have been winning at both half-time and full-time in their last four matches against Ipswich in all competitions. They also managed to keep a clean sheet in all these games. Amorim is surely not going to solve Man United's many problems after just a week of training, but I expect glimpses of his attacking and penetrating philosophy to be applied as early as Sunday.
United should be able to get the three points.
Ipswich vs Man United same-game parlay (SGP)
Manchester United to Win
Over 2.5 goals
Bruno Fernandes 1+ shot on goal
There have been over 2.5 goals in three of United's last four Premier League matches. Ipswich is also a fan of high-scoring games. There have been over 2.5 goals in four of their last six Premier League appearances.
United will probably turn to a formation with three centre-backs, similar to what Amorim used with great success at Sporting Lisbon. He hopes to offer United more stability, considering the defence has constantly looked shaky under Ten Hag.
I see goals in this game, so the over 2.5 goals option looks solid to round up a nice parlay.
United captain Bruno Fernandes surely feels the responsibility during such moments and will look to drive the team forward. He's been in fine form recently, so I'll always include him in my SGP for United's trip to Portman Road.
Fernandes shooting on goal at least once during the game is highly probable. With seven shots on goal so far this season, Fernandes is only behind Alejandro Garnacho's 13 in the Man. United stats.
