Man United vs Ipswich Prediction & Starting Lineups: Back Bruno Fernandes tonight
The pressure is on Ruben Amorim as his Manchester United side prepare to face Ipswich Town shortly in a crucial Premier League clash at Old Trafford. With kick-off fast approaching at 19:30, live on TNT Sports 4, all eyes are on United.
Sitting 15th in the table, United’s form has been more in line with a relegation battle than a push for European places. Meanwhile, Ipswich, currently 18th, will be desperate to take advantage of United’s struggles and draw closer to safety.
Read on for the best bets and justifications.
Man United vs Leicester Predictions
Manchester United are struggling massively in their attack. The injury to Amad Diallo is a big blow, as he had been their best player this season. He’s out for the season, which makes the decision to get rid of Marcus Rashford even more baffling. United needed attacking options, and instead, they let a proven goal scorer go.
With United short on forwards, the man most likely to produce is Bruno Fernandes. He was key in their last game, scoring a brilliant free-kick in the 2-2 draw against Everton.
When United are in trouble, he’s usually the one to step up, and he’ll need to do it again here. Fernandes takes penalties and free-kicks and is always involved in attacking moves, which makes him the best bet to score. With the current lack of firepower in the squad, there’s a good chance United will rely on him to find the net again tonight.
Bruno is priced at 6/4 to score a goal in this game.

Manchester United have had a terrible season, and their form, both home and away, has been shocking.
With the club sitting in 15th, this is undoubtedly going to be their worst season in Premier League history, but they are still facing a team that has been even worse. Ipswich Town are struggling even more than United, sitting 18th in the league and without a win in 2025. If there’s ever a game where United should be winning comfortably, this is it.
Despite their problems, United still have enough quality to win this game by at least two goals. Ipswich have been leaking goals regularly, and with United at home, the expectation is that they’ll control most of the game.
Bruno Fernandes and Alejandro Garnacho will be the key players in the attack, and if United can take their chances, a comfortable victory should follow. Given Ipswich’s form and United’s superior squad, backing United with a -1 handicap looks like a strong bet, especially considering that this game is taking place at Old Trafford.
