Aston Villa heads to Portman Road this evening in search of their sixth consecutive win across all competitions as they prepare to take on Ipswich Town. The Lions come into this clash off the back of a hard-fought 2-1 victory over Wycombe Wanderers in the EFL Cup earlier this week, while Ipswich have had time to regroup following their dramatic 1-1 draw against newly-promoted Southampton.
In the Premier League, Villa are riding high as they have won their last three games against Leicester City, Everton, and Wolves. They currently sit third in the table and will be keen to keep the momentum going and close the gap on the teams above them. Meanwhile, Ipswich have had a more challenging start drawing their last three league fixtures with Fulham, Brighton, and Southampton. Tractor Boys are still in search of their first win this season they will be facing a tough test against a Villa side brimming with confidence and in red-hot form.
Both sides will have their objectives clear with Villa aiming to pile on the points and Ipswich looking to finally notch their first win of the season. Tractor boys will be facing a daunting task as it won’t be easy for an in-form team at Aston Villa.

Manchester United will welcome Tottenham Hotspur to Old Trafford in what promises to be a pivotal clash for both sides. The pressure continues to mount on United manager Erik ten Hag after a frustrating 1-1 draw with FC Twente in their Europa League opener. Despite Christian Eriksen’s early wonder strike the Red Devils were unable to hold on with Sam Lammers netting a second-half equaliser.
Tottenham Hotspur, on the other hand, under Ange Postecoglou have found some attacking rhythm recently scoring eight goals in their last three games. Their 3-0 win over Qarabag in the Europa League following a comeback victory against Brentford in the Premier League has breathed new life into the North Londoners.
However, Spurs’ away form remains a concern with just two wins in their last 12 Premier League matches on the road. With both teams sitting in the mid-table this match could be crucial in setting the tone for their seasons. Neither side has been able to find consistent form and will look to take it up a notch this weekend.
Prediction: Manchester United 1-1 Tottenham Hotspur
