Liverpool vs Ipswich match preview
Liverpool will be confident of keeping up their Premier League title surge when Ipswich make their first trip to Anfield in 23 years on Saturday.
Arne Slot’s side are unbeaten in 17 Premier League games to lead the way, while Ipswich start the weekend in the relegation zone.
A win or a point could be enough to take them ahead of Wolves and out of danger though and Slot says their opponents are improving all the time.

He said: “I think it’s fair to say Ipswich have improved during the first half of the season. It’s also a compliment to Kieran McKenna, who made it really difficult in the first game we played.
“They’ve become a good team who make it difficult, with the last game being an exception because maybe [Manchester] City are becoming City again.”
City thrashed Ipswich 6-0 last weekend and they are yet to win in 2025.
