Manchester United vs Ipswich Town: Preview
When the fixture list pitted Manchester United against two promoted teams in their opening two games of the Premier League season, the Red Devils would have been targeting six points.
However, any complacency was quickly put to bed as Hull City ran out 2-0 winners over the Red Devils last weekend, immediately putting pressure on manager Michael Carrick.
It feels a little early to be calling any game a 'must-win', but the fact is that if United fail to beat Ipswich Town at Old Trafford then serious questions will be asked of Carrick and his players.
Midfielder Carlos Baleba could make his debut after completing his £70m move from Brighton & Hove Albion this week, while fellow summer signings Youri Tielemans and Andrey Santos are also set to play at Old Trafford in United colours for the first time.

Ipswich have also been busy in the transfer market, with this week's arrival of Exequiel Palacios from Bayer Leverkusen taking their summer spend towards the £200m mark - breaking Sunderland's record for the biggest outlay by a newly-promoted club.
The Tractor Boys appear determined to improve on their previous campaign at this level, in 2024/25, when they finished 16 points adrift of safety to return to the Championship after just one season.
They made the perfect start last weekend, with Jack Clarke's late winner giving them a 2-1 victory over Sunderland in Gary O'Neil's first Premier League game as manager.
Ipswich followed that up with a 3-1 Carabao Cup win over Leicester City in midweek and the Tractor Boys will head to Old Trafford believing they can get a result.
FourFourTwo's prediction
Manchester United 1-0 Ipswich Town
United should win this one, but don't be surprised if it's less straightforward than you might think.
