Liverpool are priced at just 1/4 to secure all three points on Saturday lunchtime, but we don't yet know what to expect from the Reds under new boss Arne Slot, and it may take time for the Dutchman to make his mark following the exit of Jurgen Klopp.
The visitors are unlikely to have things all their own way away to back-to-back promotion winners Ipswich, who will be hosting their first Premier League match in 22 years. Banker of the weekend: Portman Road will be absolutely bouncing come kick-off.
Despite being priced out at 7/1 for the win, Ipswich will certainly fancy their chances of causing an upset and I like the look of the hosts at 11/5 in the double chance market. Kieran McKenna's troops don't lose often; they won 16 and lost just one of their 23 league home games last season; while Liverpool failed to win over half of their league away games in 2023/24.
The Tractor Boys will also back themselves in the Both Teams To Score market given that they scored a Championship-high 92 goals last season, 59 of which came on home soil, and have since added Man City's Liam Delap on loan this summer.
As for Liverpool, they conceded in 10 of their final 11 league games last season. However, with the likes of Mo Salah, Darwin Nunez, Diogo Jota, and the in-form Cody Gakpo - more on him in a moment - in their ranks they will always be extremely confident of breaching an opposition backline, with the Reds scoring 86 top-flight goals last season.
Euro 2024 Golden Boot winner Cody Gakpo scored two goals in his final three games for Liverpool last season, then continued his goalscoring form into the summer's European Championship, where he netted three times for the Netherlands en route to the semi-finals.
Now under the helm of fellow Dutchman Arne Slot, Gakpo will look to sparkle from the off against Ipswich. In an interview with Liverpool FC, Gakpo stated he is full of confidence going into the new season and revealed that Slot views the left wing as his best position. All three of his summer strikes for the Netherlands came from playing here and, should he start out wide on Saturday, he appeals at 6/4 to get his name on the scoresheet once again.
Finally, I'm after a card from Ipswich midfielder Sam Morsy, who received a whopping 14 yellows last season, and will be in store for a busy afternoon on his Premier League debut.
Combine these four bets together and you get yourself a 28/1 fancy with CopyBet.
