CloseIpswich been unlucky with results - Slot

Liverpool face Ipswich at Anfield in the Premier League with the hosts looking to consolidate their position at the top of the table.

Arne Slot’s side begin the day six points ahead of Arsenal and Nottingham Forest in a campaign that has seen them stay strong as rivals have faltered.

His cross hits the body of an Ipswich man, causing half-hearted handball appeals from those in red.

Szoboszlai is loving it out there today.

Liverpool 3-0 Ipswich

53 mins: Liam Delap receives the ball and appears to get goalside of Konate, but the Frenchman is just too fast and strong - even for a striker of his stature - barging Delap off the ball.

Some appeals for a penalty but the referee is having none of it.

HALF-TIME!

Liverpool 3-0 Ipswich

A disastrous 45 minutes for Ipswich who will probably be thinking more about damage control at the break, rather than looking for a way to get back into this.

They’re three goals down having been roundly dominated across the park - but what would’ve stung the most was the withdrawal of Wes Burns, who appeared to pick up a serious knee injury.

Burns has been at the heart of Ipswich’s rise through the leagues in recent years, an integral part of Kieran McKenna’s setup.

However, that might be the Welshman’s season over.

HALF-TIME!

Liverpool 3-0 Ipswich

It’s one-way traffic at Anfield as Liverpool go into the break three goals to the good against Ipswich.

Dominik Szoboszlai delightfully fired home to open the scoring before neat finishes from Mo Salah and Cody Gakpo added to the Reds’ advantage.

Arne Slot will be very happy with his side’s performance so far.
