Manchester City will be looking to return to winning ways in the Premier League when they travel to Portman Road to face Ipswich Town on Sunday afternoon.
After putting together a three-game winning run in all competitions, the Citizens were forced to settle for a 2-2 draw with Brentford on Tuesday night after letting a two-goal lead slip in the final eight minutes.
Pep Guardiola's side currently sit sixth in the Premier League table, a whopping 12 points behind leaders Liverpool and three points behind Newcastle United in fourth spot.
