Current form
Ipswich have returned to the Premier League, but it will not be Kieran McKenna who will lead the team, but Gary O'Neill. The club's leaders have made every effort to strengthen the squad. Issa Diop, Sasha Lukic, Florentino Luis, Abdul Fatau, Daizen Maeda, Emerson and Julio Enciso came. The main goal for the season is to keep a residence permit in the Premier League. Ipswich started their pre-season sparring sessions with two defeats, after which they scored a series of four consecutive wins in friendly matches. Special attention should be paid to the victories over Rayo Vallecano (3:0) and Union from Berlin (4:2).

The approximate line-up: Scherpen – O'Shea, Diop, Greaves, Davis – Lukic, Florentino – Fatau, Nunez, Maeda–Emerson.
Current form
Sunderland returned to the Premier League last season and not only kept their registration, but finished in a high seventh place and received a ticket to the Europa League. The Black Cats achieved such success largely due to reliable defense – only 48 goals conceded. We managed to save the core of the squad in the summer, and now we have the experience to fight for the highest places again. In the summer test matches, Sunderland did not differ in stability, won four victories and suffered three defeats. At the same time, progress was noticeable closer to the start of the season, as evidenced by the victories over strong Ligue 1 representatives Lance (2:0) and Rennes (2:1).
Disqualifications and injuries
Adingra and Meunier are injured, Alderete and Mukiele are questionable.
Interesting betting trends
Approximate composition: Rofs – Hume, Ballard, O'Neill, Reynildo – Jaka, Sadiki – Talbi, Le Fe, Angulo – Brobbi.
There is no favorite in the line of bookmakers in the upcoming match. Ipswich has the home field factor on its side. Sunderland has a solid successful record of playing in the Premier League last season. The Black Cats retained their squad, and their reliable defensive play did not disappear, as could be seen from the recent sparring sessions with representatives of the French Ligue 1, Lance and Rennes. We believe that the guests will have more chances to score three points today.
Our prediction is that Sunderland will win with an Asian handicap (0) for a coefficient of 1.88
Bet on the total
The opponents have consistently exchanged goals in the last three face-to-face meetings. Ipswich will obviously try to please the fans with goals at home, while Sunderland is known for its clear implementation. We expect that there will be an exchange of goals scored in the match.
The second bet is that both will score with a coefficient of 1.73
Betting on corners
Corners are not Sunderland's strong suit. In six of the last eight matches, the Black Cats were inferior to their rivals in this indicator. Based on this trend, we recommend another bet.
The betting tip is that Moscow will win on corners with a coefficient of 1.80
The Total Yellow cardrateis more than 2.5
