The Merseyside team beat Crystal Palace 2-0 at home and Preston 4-0 away in their opening two matches. Three draws followed at Bournemouth 1-1 and Tottenham 0-0 and at home against Man United 2-2.

The Toffees continued their unbeaten start to the 2026/27 season with a comfortable 1-0 EFL Cup home win against Wolves. Everton controlled the contest with 1.68-0.26 XG and Carlos Alcaraz scored an 80th-minute winner.

Ipswich Declining After Tough Recent Games

Newly promoted Ipswich made a positive start to their Premier League return and beat Sunderland 2-1 at home.

Gary O’Neil’s side were outplayed in their next two games, losing 5-2 at Man United and 2-0 against Liverpool. The Suffolk outfit faced 18 total shots on target across those two matches.

Ipswich bounced back and beat 10-man Crystal Palace 3-2. The Tractor Boys needed a 90th minute winner from Zian Flemming to seal all three points.

O’Neil’s team were second best again in a 4-2 EFL Cup home loss to Arsenal on Tuesday. Ipswich faced six shots on target, were 4-0 down after 59 minutes and Anis Mehmeti and Chuba Akpom scored late on.

Everton (4-2-3-1): Jordan Pickford; Ainsley Maitland-Niles, James Tarkowski, Jarrad Branthwaite, Vitali Mykolenko; Hayden Hackney, James Garner; Brennan Johnson, Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall, Tyrique George; Thierno Barry

Defender Merlin Rohl and midfielder Christian Norgaard are injured and unavailable here.

David Moyes explained that new signing Norgaard wouldn’t return this side of the September internationals and said:

“Still unavailable. We’re hoping we get him back maybe somewhere after the international break. That would be our hope.”

Ipswich (4-2-3-1): Kjell Scherpen; Dara O'Shea, Issa Diop, Jacob Greaves, Leif Davis; Sasa Lukic, Exequiel Palacios; Issahaku Fatawu, Julio Enciso, Jack Clarke; Emersonn

Midfielder Jack Taylor is out due to a long-term knee injury.

Verdict

Everton v Ipswich

Everton are a tough Premier League side to play against and give little away at home. Ipswich have lost plenty of recent games and the Toffees can keep their good form rolling with a home victory.
