A 2-0 loss to Brighton on Thursday saw Ipswich fall back into the relegation zone but they are level on points with Wolves and just one point behind Everton. With the relegation battle heating up, every point is precious and the Tractor Boys will firmly believe they can cause City problems. Star striker Liam Delap will also be desperate to impress against his former club and will look to give the City defence a busy afternoon.

A lot has changed since City secured a thumping 4-1 win over Ipswich at the start of the season. Back in August, few would have predicted Pep Guardiola’s side would be outside the top four come January, let alone down in sixth with six defeats already this season. After letting a two-goal lead slip away in the final eight minutes in the draw with Brentford, they’ll need a more disciplined defensive display to secure the points at Portman Road.

The Tractor Boys have only lost one of their past 28 home league fixtures versus Man City. Can they extend this remarkable record? Tune in to find out and read on to make sure you don’t miss any of the EPL action with our how to watch Premier League live streams guide.
