Team Previews, Form and Standout Players

Although managing one win from their last five matches, Ipswich will be spurred on after managing a draw against European pushing Chelsea. Although their chances of survival are very slim if not impossible, mathematically there is still a chance for Kieran McKenna’s side and they will not give up without a fight.

Failing to take advantage Liverpool slip up, picking up draws and dropping points with Everton and Brentford. However, they will approach this fixture fuelled with adrenaline after their spectacular 2-1 Champions League victory at the Bernabeu meant Arsenal were victorious 5-1 over the two legs against defending champions Real Madrid.

Ipswich Town Preview

Ipswich Town Predicted Lineup (4-2-3-1): Palmer; Davis, Burgess, O’Shea, Tuanzebe; Morsy, Cajuste; Enciso, Broadhead, Johnson; Delap

Appearing as a substitute against Chelsea, Liam Delap is reportedly feeling better and is expected to retake his position in the starting xi. With a move out of Ipswich imminent, given his £30 million release clause, Delap has the chance to dazzle clubs even further, with the 22-year-old already managing 12 goals this season.

Ipswich Town will not be hopeful coming into this match, given Arsenal have managed nine goals in their last five matches whilst Ipswich have failed to keep a clean sheet in their last 14 attempts.

Arsenal Preview

Arsenal Predicted Lineup (4-3-3): Raya; Lewis-Skelly; Saliba, Kiwior, Zinchenko; Rice, Jorginho, Partey; Martinelli, Merino, Saka

Scoring his first goal since return to the starting xi after missing 3 months, Bukayo Saka pulled out an incredible performance as he guided his team to victory over Real Madrid in the Champions League.

Competing for personal success, David Raya is just two clean sheets shy of Nottingham Forest goalkeeper Matz Sels in the race for the golden glove this season.
