Follow live coverage as Manchester City face Ipswich Town today in the Premier League. Reigning champions Manchester City look to make it an unprecedented five titles in a row come the end of 2024/25.

City are hoping to build on their impressive 2-0 victory over Chelsea last time out after goals from Erling Haaland and Mateo Kovacic get the champions off to a winning start to this campaign. Pep Guardiola has re-signed Ilkay Gundogan in the hopes that his former captain can bring an added layer of stability and experience to City’s midfield but it remains to be seen if the German will feature this afternoon.

For Ipswich, their return to the top-flight ended in a 2-0 defeat to Liverpool after a solid opening 45 minutes at Portman Road. It’s another incredibly tough fixture for the newly promoted side but they will be hoping to spring a surprise of the champions.

Follow all the action from the Etihad Stadium below:

17:09

Man City make it back-to-back wins in the Premier League this season, but they had to come from behind to secure a 4-1 victory. Ipswich took a surprise lead on seven minutes, after they caught City out on the break and Szmodics beat Ederson, who probably should’ve done better. City then retaliated with three goals within the space of four minutes to fire themselves ahead. The first through Haaland from the penalty spot, followed by a goal from De Bruyne after a mistake by Muric in the Ipswich goal. Before Haaland got his second when De Bruyne turned provider this time and the striker rounded Muric and found the back of the net. The woodwork saved Ipswich on two occasions, after Lewis and De Bruyne struck the bar late on in the first half. City continued to dominate the second period, but didn’t score their fourth until the 88th minute, when Haaland wrapped up his hat-trick with a fine strike from the edge of the box. Next up for City is a trip to West Ham, while Ipswich still search for their first points of the season, they’ll welcome Fulham to Portman Road. We hope you enjoyed the game, until next time!

16:51

City have won a few corners in recent minutes, with De Bruyne whipping them into the box, but Ipswich have done well to clear the danger and prevent any more City opportunities.

Manchester City vs Ipswich Town

16:50

If Ipswich can pull a goal back now it would make for a very interesting final few minutes, but Ederson has hardly touched the ball in this second half. He’s had very little to do all game.

Manchester City vs Ipswich Town

16:46

Substitution Liam Rory Delap Ali Ibrahim Karim Al-Hamadi

Manchester City vs Ipswich Town

16:46

De Bruyne has been excellent for City today, a goal and an assist for the midfielder, who has been involved in everything in attack for the hosts, a constant threat.

Manchester City vs Ipswich Town

16:44

As we head into the final 10 minutes of the game, it’s City who lead 3-1 and despite numerous chances to extend their lead, Ipswich have held firm in this second period.

Manchester City vs Ipswich Town

16:43

Ipswich’s Kieran McKenna is the 14th different manager whose first ever Premier League away game comes against the reigning champions. None of the previous 13 have won (D2 L11), with Mark McGhee (1-1 v Man Utd in 1994) and Claudio Ranieri (3-3 v Man Utd in 2000) the only ones to earn a point.

Manchester City vs Ipswich Town

16:41

Ipswich manage to get the ball in the City penalty area, but it’s very scrappy and no one can get a good hold of the ball, so it bounces dangerously off four or five players, before Gvardiol finally clears.

Manchester City vs Ipswich Town

16:40

GREAT CHANCE! De Bruyne races in behind the Ipswich defence as a long ball is played through and he unselfishly tries to feed Haaland in the box, but his pass is a bit behind the striker, which allows Ipswich he chance to get a foot in. The second ball falls to De Bruyne, but he smashes it high over the bar.

Good block! De Bruyne whips a low corner into the box, which is met by Bernardo Silva, but his effort is fired into the legs of an Ipswich defender and the visitors manage to clear the danger.

Manchester City vs Ipswich Town

16:33

It looks like City are getting ready to make another change, with Grealish one of those getting ready on the sidelines. Gundogan could also come on to mark his return to City, following his transfer from Barcelona.

Manchester City vs Ipswich Town

16:30

GREAT SAVE! Muric with a fantastic stop to deny Haaland his hat-trick! Ipswich fail to clear a corner and De Bruyne whips a cross in from the right wing, which Haaland meets at the back post and powers a header towards the top right corner of the net. However, Muric gets a good hand to it, to tip it over the bar.

Manchester City vs Ipswich Town

16:27

It’ll be interesting to see when the Ipswich coaching staff decide to make some changes, you’d think they would be looking at some soon as we pass the hour mark and the score remains 3-1.

Manchester City vs Ipswich Town

16:25

Despite the scoreline, the visiting supporters are making a lot of noise in the away section of the Etihad, urging their side forward when they can get on the ball.

Yellow Card Rúben dos Santos Gato Alves Dias

Delap is perhaps a bit lucky to get away with just a warning from the referee after he dives into Bernardo Silva and catches him late. The former City striker has had a tough afternoon up front for the Tractor Boys.

Manchester City vs Ipswich Town

16:18

Yellow Card Samuel Joseph Szmodics

Manchester City vs Ipswich Town

16:18

City are unbeaten in their last 44 home games in all competitions (W37 D7) since a 2-1 loss to Brentford in November 2022. It’s the eighth longest such run among English top-flight clubs in history, and longest since Chelsea’s run of 74 between February 2006 and October 2008.

Manchester City vs Ipswich Town

16:16

We haven’t got up to the electric pace that we saw in the first half so far in the second period. But it’s still City seeing much more of the ball and looking to extend their lead.

Manchester City vs Ipswich Town

16:14

City have a few options on the bench to replace Kovacic, but it’s Stones who comes on to replace the midfielder.

Manchester City vs Ipswich Town

16:12

Kovacic is down on the pitch for City, he seems to be struggling with an injury after a coming together with Delap. He may have to come off, but is receiving medical treatment at the moment.

Manchester City vs Ipswich Town

16:08

The second half is under way!

Manchester City vs Ipswich Town

16:01

City will be confident of scoring a few more after the break, although Ipswich did manage to grow into the game towards the end of the half and had a penalty shout of their own, when Davis was brought down by Savinho, but nothing was given.

Manchester City vs Ipswich Town

15:59

HALF-TIME: MAN CITY 3-1 IPSWICH

Manchester City vs Ipswich Town

15:59

Ipswich took a shock lead after just seven minutes here at the Etihad, after a quick counter allowed Szmodics through on goal and he beat Ederson, who should’ve done better. However, their lead lasted just five minutes, after Savinho was brought down by Davis in the box and Haaland coolly converted the resulting penalty following a VAR check. A huge error in goal by Muric then handed De Bruyne a golden opportunity to make it 2-1 just two minutes later, which he gladly took. Before Haaland got his second on 16 minutes after racing in behind the Ipswich defence, rounding Muric and sending the ball into the back of the net to make it 3-1. City could’ve scored a few more, but the woodwork denied both Lewis and De Bruyne to Ipswich’s delight.

Manchester City vs Ipswich Town

15:53

City fancy getting another goal before the break, they are camped inside the Ipswich half of the pitch at the moment, who surely want the half-time whistle to blow sooner rather than later.

Manchester City vs Ipswich Town

15:53

CHANCE! City almost make it four just before the break, with Doku getting to the byline down the left wing and he pulls the ball back to De Bruyne in the six yard box. However, he fires it over the crossbar! He should’ve done better from there.

Manchester City vs Ipswich Town

15:51

We’re a minute into an additional five added on at the end of the first half, after the lengthy VAR check prior to the City penalty.

Manchester City vs Ipswich Town

15:48

This is a positive end to the half for Ipswich, they are seeing a bit more of the ball in the City half. However, they can’t seem to keep it for long enough to cause Ederson any problems.

Manchester City vs Ipswich Town

15:47

PENALTY SHOUT! Ipswich this time are appealing for a penalty! They manage to work the ball into the City final third, with Davis skipping inside from the left and racing into the box. The left-back then goes down under pressure from Lewis and Savinho, with the latter barging into the back of him. However, the referee isn’t interested and nothing is given.

Manchester City vs Ipswich Town

15:43

There’s not long left to play until the break now, will we see any more goals before the half-time whistle?

Manchester City vs Ipswich Town

15:40

Into the wall! De Bruyne steps up to take a free-kick on the edge of the box, but he doesn’t get enough on it and the Ipswich wall do its job well.

Manchester City vs Ipswich Town

15:39

Morsy is shown the first yellow card of the game after he brings Savinho down in a dangerous position on the edge of the box.

Manchester City vs Ipswich Town

15:38

Stoppage in play here at the moment as Hutchinson is down on the pitch receiving some medical treatment, but it looks like the winger should be fine to continue.

Manchester City vs Ipswich Town

15:36

City have won 17 of their last 18 Premier League games against promoted sides (D1) since a 2-1 home loss to Leeds in April 2021.

Manchester City vs Ipswich Town

15:34

City could have scored five or six goals already here, they look excellent in attack so far today, with Ipswich struggling to keep them out of the final third.

Manchester City vs Ipswich Town

15:34

ANOTHER OFF THE BAR! This time it’s De Bruyne who strikes the woodwork! The midfielder is allowed far too much time and space on the edge of the box and he drills a superb effort towards the top right corner of the net. However, it cannons off the bar!

Manchester City vs Ipswich Town

15:32

OFF THE BAR! Almost a fourth for City! They open up the visitors once again down the left wing through Doku and Ipswich fail to clear the danger, with the ball falling to Lewis deep inside the box. However, he can only power his strike against the crossbar! So close.

Manchester City vs Ipswich Town

15:29

Ipswich are continuing to try and play out from the back, but City are playing with a high press and really putting them under pressure, so it is proving difficult for the visitors.

Manchester City vs Ipswich Town

15:28

The pace of the game has dropped in the last couple of minutes after such a frantic opening period. They are keeping the ball well in the Ipswich half.

Manchester City vs Ipswich Town

15:25

Ipswich need to regroup and try and keep the ball a bit, get their composure back after a tough 10 minutes or so. City on the other hand look in complete control.

Manchester City vs Ipswich Town

15:25

Ipswich lost 2-0 against Liverpool in their opening match of 2024-25 – not since 2006-07 in the Championship have they started a league season with two straight defeats, while they last did so in the top-flight in 1985-86.

Manchester City vs Ipswich Town

15:24

What an opening we’ve had to this game! A remarkable turnaround by City after Ipswich took a shock lead. Some questionable defending by the visitors though, they can’t be happy with what’s gone on.

CITY PENALTY! The referee takes his time watching the video replay of the incident, but after what seems like ages, he finally points to the penalty spot. City have the chance to equalise.

Manchester City vs Ipswich Town

15:15

PENALTY CHECK! Savinho races past Davis down the left and just sneaks into the penalty area, with the Ipswich left-back just sticking out a leg and Savinho goes to ground. VAR are taking a look at this one, it looked like he got the player rather than the ball.

Manchester City vs Ipswich Town

15:14

Penalty Goal Erling Braut Haaland

Manchester City vs Ipswich Town

15:14

That’s shocked the home support at the Etihad, the Ipswich goal has come against the run of play, but they won’t mind one bit!

15:10

Goal Samuel Joseph Szmodics

Manchester City vs Ipswich Town

15:10

Assist Benjamin Anthony Johnson

Manchester City vs Ipswich Town

15:10

A lot of City’s play is coming down the left early on, with Gvardiol playing high up the pitch in an almost winger position. They look dangerous down that side.

Manchester City vs Ipswich Town

15:08

PENALTY SHOUT! Doku releases Gvardiol in behind the Ipswich defence down the left and he plays a low cross into the box. However, Muric manages to get a touch on it, before Greaves and Haaland battle to get to the ball first, which results in both of them on the floor and Muric gratefully pounces on the loose ball. Haaland immediately appeals for a penalty, but the referee isn’t interested.

Manchester City vs Ipswich Town

15:05

As you might expect it’s City who are controlling possession early on, with Ipswich having to get everyone back behind the ball to defend in numbers. City just probing in the visitors half at the moment.

Manchester City vs Ipswich Town

15:02

Here we go! Ipswich get is under way!

Manchester City vs Ipswich Town

14:59

Manchester City vs Ipswich Town

14:54

Meanwhile Kieran McKenna has made three changes to his side, with Johnson, Szmodics and Muric all coming into the starting line-up, as Walton, Burns and Chaplin drop to the bench. Delap makes his return to the Etihad after joining the Tractor Boys from City earlier this Summer.

Manchester City vs Ipswich Town

14:49

Pep Guardiola names the same starting XI that beat Chelsea, but there is a change on the bench after City confirmed the return of Gundogan from Barcelona yesterday in time for the midfielder to take his place among the substitutes today. Rodri still isn’t up to full fitness, so he misses out.
