OPPOSING MANAGER - Gary O’Neil
O’Neil has good Premier League managerial experience after previous stints at Bournemouth and Wolverhampton Wanderers, where he secured 15th and 14th-placed finishes in his first seasons with the two sides respectively.
He also guided French side Strasbourg to the semi-finals of the UEFA Europa Conference League last season, proving that he can help his sides compete at the highest level.
And after arriving at newly-promoted Ipswich in the summer, he’s made a promising start with three wins from six matches, beating Sunderland, Crystal Palace and Fulham.
PREVIOUS MEETING
Sammie Szmodics had opened the scoring for the visitors early doors, but Pep Guardiola’s men came charging back with a blink-and-you-miss it trio of goals all in the space of just three minutes and eleven seconds.Â
Haaland hit two, sandwiched by Kevin De Bruyne’s calm finish, to help us quickly overturn the shock lad for the Tractor Boys.
Haaland put the icing on the cake with a delightful drilled finish late on to bring up 23 career hat-tricks.
In the reverse fixture later in the season at Portman Road, we cruised to a 6-0 win.
