The game of Manchester United against Ipswich is very clear that anyone can predict the match, Manchester United is the favorite to win the match, Manchester United's performance in the last matches was very good and having a new coach will improve the players to be very serious and be hungry of winning matches, Ipswich is not that team that is capable to defeat Manchester United so I see Manchester United as the favorite to win the match.
Ipswich is not a strong team so I am optimistic that this match can be a good match for Amorim to start his first win with Man United. There are so many tactical things that are very different from Amorim, he will change the formation of the Man United players and start relying on some players who were rarely noticed by the previous coach. Rasmus Hojlund is expected to be a successful striker in Amorim hands because we know that since being in Erik Ten Hag hands this player has played below standard.

He has done it after successfully leading Man City to win the EPL trophy for four consecutive seasons, he has established himself as the only coach who has managed to dominate the EPL for four seasons, in my opinion this record is very difficult for other coaches to catch up. This season he began to have difficulty maintaining Man City performance due to several key players being injured, this condition was made worse by Liverpool increasing performance since being handled by Arne Slot. I am very skeptical that he can retain the title for five consecutive seasons, as you can see now, Man City performance is very bad in the last four games in all competitions.
You're right, your logic is very accurate, but we're talking about a very good team and a coach who is a very good strategist, for me City can recover at any moment and can be unbeatable, right now Liverpool is doing well, but they have to seize the good moment before waking up the lion, because once this team wakes up it will be a steamroller, for now I think things can be like that, remember that now MU is also recovering and they are doing things very well, I think many teams run with that way of being in crisis during the season.
Here are the full fixtures for this weekend together with the odds (by duelbits) for the Matchday 12:
The one that interests me the most is Man City Vs Tottenham. There's a lot of pressure on Pep Guardiola to win this one and prove that the 4-games losing streak was just a temporary flop and things will go back to normal.
It's also a debut for Ruben Amorim who will lead Man United in an away game against Ipswich. The team's morale seemed to improve under the interim management of Ruud Van Nistelroy so I expect a win for United.

Manchester City's game against Tottenham is going to be tough because both team's performances this season was not that good in their last match against each other in Carabao Tottenham defeated Manchester City which made Manchester City Eliminate from the Carabao Cup League, but in this match I don't think Tottenham is going to defeat Manchester City, Manchester City lost their last 4 games in a row and I don't think Pep Guardiola will want that to repeat itself.

Liverpool has surpassed my expectations, I didn’t imagine they would be currently occupying the top spot in the league this season. Although the point difference is just 5 points, their performance so far have been impressive. Manchester City are surprisingly lagging behind, and with the inconsistency of teams likes Arsenal, Tottenham and Chelsea, Liverpool have positioned themselves as title favorites this season. Liverpool have a strong chance of winning the league this season but only if they can maintain this momentum and avoid any setback.
If I monitor Manchester City and am a little surprised by their performance lately this season at least until the 11th round.
Liverpool's performance is beyond what I thought also with the intention that they will not be like Manchester City because Liverpool this season is no longer with Jurgen Klopp, but Arne Slot has been able to maintain a level of team stability that is almost perfect.
The difference between Manchester City and Liverpool at this time with 5 points is not difficult for Pep Guardiola to catch up. At least their current position can still make Liverpool not safe in 1st place in the standings. This means that the English Premier League is still in a shifting position.

So in other for them to win the premier league title this season, they just have to continue with the same Vien of form and play as if they aren't leading the league, because at this point complacency is actually going to be their greatest enemy which they must overcome if they really want to be crown champions at the end of the season.
Then lastly, if Manchester city want to compete and retain the title that they won last season, they must improve on their current form by getting the desired result weeks in weeks out and be hoping that Liverpool drops point at some point during the season, because consistency is very much important in the race for the premier league title.

I'm not saying 100% Liverpool have won the League. That's why I said Man City didn't really regress, that means you understand how much I also expect Man City to be champions again. Don't get me wrong, please read carefully. Precisely with Liverpool back in the title race, Man City are required not to let their guard down because the Premier League can always present surprises. Isn't that a good and healthy challenge for Pep Guardiola?

So far only Liverpool has consistently maintained their winning streak, and if we compare it with others, only Liverpool is currently on track for the championship. Out of 14 matches, they only lost once at the beginning of the season, Nottingham Forest, and drew when they faced Arsenal. Liverpool consistently holds a 12-game winning streak, this shows their seriousness to win all events from this session. They also have complete players, they don't have an injured main player on the bench, and they are perfect so far, with nothing to worry about who the players to be fielded, because Arni Slot has many stock players to play the full season.
Manchester United has actually conducted two evaluations of Ten Hag performance before, but it is quite strange if at that time they still continue to maintain Ten Hag as a coach, honestly as a team that has a great championship history and has spent hundreds of millions of euros, of course winning the FA trophy with beating Manchester City is not something that is commensurate and is a reason to keep Ten Hag, Because after all the series of results and bad records obtained by ten hag in the league actually shows his inability to train actually, the arrival of amorim gives new hope for them at this time, but I think manchester united cannot charge him with high targets in his first season of coaching, because with the current poor condition of manchester united then he needs time to fix it.
People actually think the board use Ten Hag win against Manchester city as the only yard stick to still keep in the job even when the hierarchy made it clear that they went for many coaches but accessing the market then they didn’t find someone better than him and with his second season then hampered by injuries they just have to give him his Chance even though they shouldn’t have extended his contract then but that also was to give a reason that the board is behind him.
This new Manager has been tasked to bring the best out of this players as the club isn’t looking to buy players at the moment after they have spent above $600m for the players he signed. Now I think Amorim wouldn’t find it easy but this players are quality that should they need to improve or turn they can do that but most of this players are not even showing and I think after Amorim first season now they could be departures as that is the only way they can sign new players

TBH, I don't have any confidence in who will get the title this season, because the points difference between Liverpool and Man City is not too far, only 5 points and it is very easy to catch up. There is no guarantee that Liverpool will continue to provide a large score difference, but I believe that the competition will continue to occur before the two teams have a difference of 9 points or above.
On the one hand, when the transfer market opens, many teams will experience changes between increasing performance or decreasing performance.
We'll see after the next 2 months.

Manchester United is already late in being the English Premier League contenders, what Amorim can comfortably achieve is top 4, unless Liverpool begins to misbehave just as Manchester city is doing. But the possibility of this happening is so low.
Agreed!!Lets set the record straight...Top 6 is not happening for Manchester United, the board chose to keep Erik Ten Hag after beating City and thinking things will improve but instead it was their worst decision as the man was on his way out but they entertained him and has left the team 6 feet under now...but with the coming of Amorim, anything below 10 should be a win for the club and that should be what to aim for as the team is undergoing surgery.
I'm of the opinion that the team is unlikely to start winning immediately after the appointment of a new coach, so Manchester United really won't be able to claim anything soon, but I think they will easily get into the top 10 if the coach does enough. Top 6 is really an impossible task this season, but next season it's quite possible. The main thing is that the management in case of anything from now on will not tolerate so long
Amorim does not need to target the top 5/6 positions, because as long as he can fix the chaos that Erik Ten Hag did, Amorim will definitely get full support from the club. So Amorim current task is to focus on trying to stabilize and restore the confidence of his players that has long been buried by Ten Hag. Give players comfort, establish good relationships with coaches not only on the field but also off the field to show a sense of togetherness.
Even if it is not a must to finish in the top 5/6, Amorim needs to improve Man United position in EPL standings. Man United is in 13th place, it is not a proper position for a big team like Man United. The club management must expect a better position, they must ask Amorim to return Man United into the top 10 soon. However, it is surely not easy, Amorim should fix the problems in Man United squad first. Improving the players' confidence, applying a better tactic, and making a good relationship among the players are some basic matters that Amorim need to take a serious attention. This may take time but I'm sure Amorim can do it well. He has proven his capability in Sporting, he should do the same way in Man United.
Agreed!!

It would be really bold to claim top 6 isn't realistic for Manchester United. We have left only 11 weeks behind and the point difference with Brighton in 6th place is only 4. Nothing is impossible.
But will it be easy for them? Hell no! They have many clubs ahead of them to overtake first. They just need to be patient and keep consistency with wins as of now.
I hope Amorim can bring back the real spirit of this club. Since Ferguson times, we haven't watched the real Manchester United. Just bring in the players you need and fight with all you have!

Manchester United under Amorim if they improve, their achievement can only be in the top four and that's if Chelsea and Arsenal fail to get points every week. If possible Liverpool and Manchester City also experience poor performances. The problem is, teams like Nottingham Forest, Brighton and Newcastle are also struggling every week.
You talk as if you have the confidence that Liverpool have already won the league. For me I still believe that the league is still open for any of the top teams to win. I know Liverpool have been doing very well so far but they can still be stopped before the season comes to an end. They are just simply enjoying the moment and I don't have confidence that they will be able to sustain this because the team as it is now is built on two or three players with Mo Salah as the main person.
Manchester City can still win the league if they start winning all their matches and scoring many goals. It is only Arsenal that I have doubts in winning the league based on their history.

There is no way Liverpool performance has in anyway affected Manchester city. Manchester city and Liverpool hasn't played each other this season. They are two different clubs and they have their distinct ways of achieving their goals. Manchester city performance this season is mainly attributed to their players being injured. Lasting season Arsenal performed far better than Liverpool is doing this season, why didn't it affect Manchester city to be having bad results? I have never seen where another team good performance is responsible for another bad performances. A team suddenly starts performing badly once they lose their to players either through injuries or through sales. But in the case of Manchester city, injury is the primary source of their bad performances currently.
This could be very true, I am sure that Liverpool being good has nothing to do with City losing, those are totally irrelevant subjects. I still think Rodri is the only reason why they are doing badly right now, as long as they find a solution to him being missing, we are going to end up with a great return eventually.there is no way Manchester city poor performance won't be a motivation for Liverpool to put in additional effort because this is a clear chance that looks like this is their season of winning the English premier league. so far, they have been doing well across leagues and what's going to cloud their mind is the possibility of winning both the EPL and the UCL and from how the result is going, they might likely do that if man city doesn't get things right on time.
