Ipswich Town-Manchester United is a match of the twelfth day of the Premier League and is played on Sunday at 5:30pm: live TV, probable formations, prediction.
All set for Ruben Amorim’s official debut on the Manchester United bench. The Red Devils’ new coach will make his debut against newly promoted Ipswich Town, becoming the youngest coach (he is only 39) to lead the emblazoned English club since Wilf McGuinness back in 1969.
Amorim was announced as early as two weeks ago but the agreement with Sporting was that he would remain in Portugal for the next two games. Meanwhile, to ferry United after Erik ten Hag’s exoneration was former flagman Ruud van Nistelrooy, who has not done badly: with him Bruno Fernandes and his teammates have never lost between League Cup, Premier League and Europa League, collecting three wins and one draw. With Amorim, of course, it will be a revolution, certainly from a tactical point of view: it is very likely that we will see the three-man defense – the Lusitanian coach’s trademark – but, as the coach himself explained in a press conference, there will be some “stylistic” differences from Sporting.
Against Ipswich Town, Maguire will certainly be missing, while Lindelof and Lisandro Martinez, who returned from commitments with their respective national teams, will have to be evaluated. Certain of a place, however, are Ugarte and Diallo.
Manchester United will in any case face a team reinvigorated by its first success of the season. And what a success: before the break, Kieran McKenna’s men had gone on a winning run at home to Tottenham (1-2), ending their winning fast and momentarily leaving the relegation zone.

The Prediction
Ipswich has so far scored the same number of goals as Manchester United (12) but the Tractor Boys’ main problem is a defense that is far from watertight and has remained unbeaten on only one occasion. It won’t be a quiet debut for Amorim but the Red Devils should be able to take the 3 points away from Portman Road in a contest of at least three goals total.
