An ominous sign for the rest of the Premier League, Man City started the new campaign in style as they eased to a comfortable 2-0 win over big-spending Chelsea last weekend. Pep Guardiola’s side didn’t have to hit anywhere near top gear as they efficiently and ruthlessly secured the win at Stamford Bridge. With Erling Haaland looking fit and sharp, it could prove to be a tough day for the visitors as City look to continue their perfect start.
Playing in the top flight for the first time in 22 years, Ipswich Town were excellent for 45 minutes at home against Liverpool before being undone by some moments of quality. Manager Kieran McKenna was nonetheless pleased with the performance and it is clear they will cause teams problems with their high press. However, they will need to sharpen up defensively and put in a huge effort if they hope to leave the Etihad with their first Premier League points.
Line-ups:
Man City: Ederson, Lewis, Akanji, Dias, Gvardiol, Kovacic, De Bruyne, Bernardo, Savinho, Doku, Haaland
Ipswich: Muric, Johnson, Greaves, Woolfenden, Tuanzebe, Morsy, Luongo, Szmodics, Hutchinson, Delap
The last time these two sides met in the Premier League was back in 2001 when Ipswich secured a 2-1 victory. Could they repeat that today? Tune in to find out and make sure you don’t miss any of the EPL action with our how to watch Premier League live streams guide.

Away from home at the moment and blocked from watching the soccer on your usual subscription?
You can still watch Man City vs Ipswich Town live thanks to the wonders of a VPN (Virtual Private Network). The software allows your devices to appear to be back in your home country regardless of where in the world you are. So ideal for viewers away on vacation or on business. Our favorite is NordVPN. It's the best on the market:
There's a good reason you've heard of NordVPN. We specialize in testing and reviewing VPN services and NordVPN is the one we rate best. It's outstanding at unblocking streaming services, it's fast and it has top-level security features too.

Can you watch Man City vs Ipswich Town in the U.K.?
Unfortunately, there will be no Man City vs Ipswich Town live stream in the United Kingdom. That's because U.K. broadcasters are blocked from airing Saturday 3 p.m. kick-offs to protect attendances elsewhere in the football pyramid.
U.S. fans visiting the U.K. can use one of the best VPN services to access their usual streaming service from abroad. We recommend NordVPN.
As it stands, live Premier League rights are split three ways in the U.K. between Sky Sports, TNT Sports and Amazon Prime Video.
