Man United vs. Ipswich Town lineups, starting 11, confirmed team news, injuries: Can Ruben Amorim build on Everton comeback? image

Manchester United will attempt to end a run of three Premier League matches without a win when they host Ipswich Town at Old Trafford on Wednesday.

The Red Devils recovered from a dreadful first half to claim a 2-2 draw at Everton last time out — a result that may at least have restored a little morale during a trying time.

Having lost five of their past six home games in the league, they will hope that the visit of relegation-threatened Ipswich will allow them the chance to return to winning ways.

The Tractor Boys were beaten 4-1 at home by Tottenham Hotspur last time out and are now five points from safety with 12 matches to play, so they are desperate to get points on the board and give their survival hopes a boost.
