Match preview

Our model makes Manchester City clear favourites, giving them a 71% chance of winning against 16% for the draw.

Our fair price for "Home win" is 1.42 — the pick only has value at a bookmaker price above that.

We expect 3.7 goals in total (2.63 for Manchester City, 1.07 for Ipswich), which points to Over 2.5 as a secondary angle.

Manchester City sit 2nd on 21 points; Ipswich are 14th on 11.

Check team news before kick-off — a late change to either line-up moves the numbers.
