Premier League: Liverpool Face Ipswich, Chelsea To Test Man City's Leaky Defense (roundup)
Arne Slot's side play at home to Ipswich Town, who will travel to Anfield chastened in the wake of last weekend's 6-0 hammering at home to Manchester City. Ipswich played some good attacking football for the opening half-hour of that defeat, but their expansive football has been punished by powerful rivals, and visiting coach Kieran McKenna may have to switch to a more conservative approach against a rival that has plenty of goalscoring options.
Arsenal and Nottingham Forest are both in action at the same time as Liverpool on Saturday afternoon, with Arsenal travelling to play Wolverhampton Wanderers, while Forest has a difficult visit to in-form Bournemouth. Wolves have slipped to 17th in the table and sit level on points with Ipswich after Vitor Pereira's new manager bounce seems to have worn off. Part of Wolves' problem seems to be the future of striker Matheus Cunha, who is a January target for both Arsenal and Forest.
