Manchester United were hugely disappointing at Hull in their Premier League opener and will feel they have to hit back immediately when hosting Ipswich . The Tractor Boys made a winning return to the top flight and also enjoyed a League Cup success in midweek, but may now be facing the Red Devils at just the wrong time.
We reckon 11/10 for a home win by more than one clear goal is the way to go with our main Man Utd vs Ipswich prediction.

Head-to-Head
Man Utd vs Ipswich head-to-head record
Ipswich did hold United to a 1-1 draw when last in the Premier League a couple of years ago and were competitive at Old Trafford before going down 3-2 against 10 men. However, that was a fifth consecutive defeat at this venue, stretching back to the Red Devils’ record-breaking 9-0 romp in March 1995.

Form Guides

Having been talked up as potential title contenders on the back of last season’s strong finish, United put in a dismal display when losing 2-0 at Hull , where Semi Ajayi and Nobel Mendy did the damage in the first half. The Red Devils looked very vulnerable against crosses into the box and were sadly lacking in creativity going forward when trying to get back into that match.
However, boss Michael Carrick insisted he will remain calm and Luke Shaw was adamant United will bounce back from their “smack in the face” at MKM Stadium. He declared: “One game won’t define us. We’ll regroup, we’ll go again and I promise it’ll be a good season from us.” United received a double boost this week with the signing of Brighton midfielder Carlos Baleba and captain Bruno Fernandes being crowned PFA Player of the Year.
They won eight of Carrick’s nine home matches in charge last term, netting exactly three times in half of those victories. Looking at the Man Utd vs Ipswich odds , that nudges us towards 7/5 for the fired-up hosts to score over 2.5 goals here.

Town had to contend with Kieran McKenna stepping away from the club after guiding them back up but were very active in the transfer market to bolster their squad for new boss Gary O’Neil.
Beating Sunderland 2-1 at Portman Road first up was an emotional experience, with substitute Jack Clarke scoring a 90th-minute decider after Emersonn's opener had been cancelled out by Nilson Angulo’s cracking free-kick. However, Ipswich were somewhat gifted both goals by defensive errors in a match where the Black Cats enjoyed more than 62 per cent of the possession. “No one is getting carried away, because we know how hard that was and how hard it is, so we will be straight back to work,” commented O’Neil .
Tuesday’s 3-1 League Cup triumph over Leicester was another confidence boost and the Tractor Boys do look dangerous on the break. This is a stiff test, though, and the best we can predict for Town is a BOYLE Sports price boost of 9/4 for them to grab a consolation goal in defeat. For those seeking a bigger pay-out, our Man Utd vs Ipswich betting tips point towards taking 10/1 for a 3-1 home win.
