Meta AI match review and badger pic:
The upcoming EPL match between Tottenham Hotspur and Ipswich Town is set to kick off at 2 p.m. on Sunday, November 10, 2024, at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium ¹.

Team Form and Playing Style
Tottenham has been inconsistent lately, with a 2-3 loss to Galatasaray in the UEFA Europa League and a 4-1 win against Aston Villa in the Premier League ¹. They've shown flashes of brilliance, but also struggled with defense. Ipswich, on the other hand, has been struggling to find their footing, with a 1-1 draw against Leicester and a 3-4 loss to Brentford ¹ ². They've had issues with maintaining leads and discipline, having conceded goals in the dying minutes of matches.

Expected Scoreline
Given Tottenham's home advantage and Ipswich's struggles, I'd predict a 2-1 win for Tottenham. However, Ipswich has shown they can surprise teams, so it's not going to be an easy ride for Spurs.

Spurs playing a club who haven’t won a league game. We’ve seen this film many times but surely we won’t fudge this one up?

They defensively are so poor and give the ball away so much (sounds familiar)
If our front players can click we will score 4 plus again as we will have loads of chances

Hmm, interesting.

I wonder whether that would even be reported as a possibility if Dragusin didn't have such a mare yesterday...

I didn't see much of yesterdays game, but even if Dragusin did have a mare he is a very good CB and Ange knows this and would have no qualms about playing him vs Ipswich at home. He certainly wouldn't be rushing Romero back for this game, and if he is available it is more likely Davies would be the one to miss out....

I agree it would likely be Davies missing out, though it could be argued that there is more left-right balance if the paring is Dragusin-Davies rather than Dragusin-Romero.

My point was wondering that it would give a bit of a morale lift if Romero was possibly available; that lift would be seen as more necessary given the struggles yesterday
 
If we were Arsenal or Fergies United, We'd do our best to patch up Romero for this Ipswich game and then make him pull out of the International break* to rest and recover properly.

*I assume Argentina also have games coming up
 

McKenna on 'signs of progress' and Tottenhampublished at 16:21
16:21​


Ipswich Town boss Kieran McKenna has been speaking to the media before Sunday's Premier League game against Tottenham (kick-off 14:00).

Here are the key lines from his news conference:

  • There are "no new injury concerns" for the game with defenders Axel Tuanzebe and Jacob Greaves set to be available for selection after the November international break, as well as midfielder Jack Taylor. Defender Dara O'Shea is set to play again despite an ongoing back problem.
  • McKenna feels Ipswich have been "competitive" in most matches even though they are still looking for their first win since returning to the Premier League: "I don't think you can always set an exact expectation or definition of performances because every game is different. One of our first goals is to be competitive in every match and we're not too far away from that. Across the 10 games we have certainly been in the large majority of games. We would have liked to have won a couple by now but, also, we've only lost five out of 10 with what we have been through and the challenges we have faced over the early part of the season."
  • He added: "To pick up five results - certainly could have been one or two more - and to be as competitive as we have been, I think there are a lot of positives in there. We know there is another step to take to win games consistently in the Premier League that we haven't taken yet. We're showing good signs of progress and the group is growing."
  • McKenna came through the Spurs academy and began his coaching career with the club: "It has had a massive bearing on me as a person. It's a great club and one that I, of course, have a fondness for. From a football perspective, as a player, it was my opportunity and access to the professional game in England. Definitely from a coaching point of view, I was very blessed to be there at the time I was as a coach because from an academy level, the club were country-wide leaders at that time in terms of developing players."
 
Haven't seen them play. How do they play? Typical promoted side that fights and tries to win a battle, or do they actually try to play football? If it's the former, we need Sarr and Biss in midfield, with Kulu.
