Man Utd vs Ipswich odds and score prediction
Sky Sports' Lewis Jones...
You don't have to convince me twice to back a set-piece angle.
Manchester United won just 42 per cent of their duels in their 2-0 defeat to Hull - the lowest figure recorded by any Premier League team on the opening weekend. That lack of physical bite is a concern in a league where you simply cannot afford to be second best in the fundamentals.
Since Michael Carrick took charge, United have conceded 20 Premier League goals in 18 matches - 10 of them from set plays. That's an extraordinary ratio. Only Bournemouth and Leeds have conceded a higher proportion of their goals from set-pieces during that period.
And Hull provided the perfect example of how to exploit it, scoring both goals from dead-ball situations in their stunning victory at Old Trafford.
So why should we expect Ipswich to be any different?
Dara O'Shea is the first-contact man on set pieces for Town and averaged 0.95 shots per 90 over the last 12 months. That's a great number for a defender and tells us something about how aggressive Ipswich are in targeting him. He is Evens for at least one shot and 18/1 to score with Sky Bet.
SCORE PREDICTION: 2-1
