Man Utdvs.Ipswich

sportsmole.co.uk, 26 February 2025, 09:39
Manchester United are in danger of setting an unwanted club record when they continue their Premier League campaign with a home fixture against Ipswich Town on Wednesday night.

The Red Devils have been vulnerable from corners this season, conceding 11 times, with no side in the top flight letting in more from that avenue during the 2024-25 campaign.

Man United also conceded 11 times from corners in England's top flight last term, and they have never let in more, so one for Ipswich on Wednesday evening would set an unwanted club record for Ruben Amorim's strugglers.

The 20-time English champions will enter the match off the back of a 2-2 draw against Everton, coming from two goals behind to claim a point at Goodison Park.

The Red Devils have not been victorious in the league since the end of January, though, claiming only a point from their last three matches, which has left the team in 15th spot in the Premier League table.

"When I took the job, I expect to win all the games at home and you have that feeling. I don't feel the pressure, I don't feel it. Like again, the supporters are amazing. I don't feel it," Amorim said during his press conference on Tuesday.

"Every time you go to one game at Old Trafford, you feel the support until the end. Sometimes, you have one play sometimes in one half and sometimes you feel like the supporters want this so bad, so I don't feel the pressure and we have to stop thinking about the last games. It can be a new game, it can be a new story, so let's go forward and play the game."

Man United only have the 14th-best home record in the Premier League this season, picking up just 16 points from 13 matches, suffering seven defeats in the process.

The Red Devils have lost five of their last six league matches in front of their own fans, including their last two against Brighton & Hove Albion and Crystal Palace, and struggling Ipswich are now their latest opponents on home soil.

What is Man United's team news for Ipswich clash?

Man United will once again be missing a number of first-team players against Ipswich, with Amorim revealing that it will be the same squad from the fixture with Everton on Saturday afternoon.

"No, I think it's the same. They are improving but nobody is recovering for this game," said the manager.

As a result, Lisandro Martinez, Amad Diallo, Luke Shaw, Kobbie Mainoo, Toby Collyer, Mason Mount, Altay Bayindir, Tom Heaton and Jonny Evans are all set to be unavailable for selection.

There had been some concerns over an injury that Noussair Mazraoui picked up against Everton, but the Morocco international will seemingly be available, while Leny Yoro, Christian Eriksen and Manuel Ugarte are back in the fold after recent absences.
