Our Man Utd vs Ipswich bet builder selections

Man Utd to win

The Red Devils were the Premier League’s most in-form side after Michael Carrick took charge in January. But they started this season with a chastening 2-0 away win to Hull on the opening weekend.

Carrick will demand a response on home soil to revive the feel-good factor – against another newly-promoted side.

Ipswich impressed in a 2-1 win over Sunderland last weekend. But United should get over the line.

• Man Utd won eight of nine Premier League home matches under Michael Carrick (Win rate: 88.9%).

Fernandes to assist

Bruno Fernandes became the Premier League’s top assist-maker in a single season in 2025/26 (21). The Portuguese star broke the record held by both Thierry Henry and Kevin De Bruyne.

After a quiet match against Hull, the skipper will be back with a vengeance to drive his team to victory.

• Fernandes ended last season with nine assists in his last 11 league matches.

Lukic to be carded

Ipswich have targeted Premier League experience alongside European exposure in their return to the top flight this season.

Former Fulham midfielder Sasa Lukic fits the bill and will be an undisputed starter for the Tractor Boys. But will that mean more chance of picking up bookings?

The Serb picked up nine yellow cards for Fulham last season. He needs just one for this leg of the bet builder to land.

• Lukic has picked up four yellow card suspensions in two seasons in the Premier League.

Akpom 1+ SOT

Chuba Akpom’s loan move was made permanent in the summer. And he brings a wealth of experience around Europe, including goal-laden spells at PAOK as well as time at Ajax and Lille.

The English forward had two shots on target in the EFL Cup win over Leicester and could get opportunities here.

• Akpom is still looking for his first Premier League goal, having made 24 appearances in England’s top flight.
