Everton beat Ipswich 2-0 at Portman Road to secure their first away victory of the Premier League season and leave the Tractor Boys still looking for a maiden win since sealing promotion.

The visitors were clinical with their finishing as Iliman Ndiaye scored in the 17th minute and Michael Keane doubled the Toffees’ advantage five minutes before the break.

Ipswich had wasted a golden opportunity to take the lead through Jack Clarke but he skied his effort high over the bar and they were also denied a first-half penalty when referee Michael Oliver was called to the VAR screen to reverse his initial decision.

Aro Muric was by far the busiest of the two goalkeepers while Everton’s England stopper Jordan Pickford was troubled very little throughout as the well-drilled Everton defence held firm.

McKenna makes just two changes from the heavy defeat to West Ham, with both of them coming in defence. Jacob Greaves and Ben Johnson both drop out of the side, with the former believed to have picked up a knock. Burgess and Woolfenden come in for them.

Ipswich Town vs Everton

Everton started the season with a winless run of their own, failing to win any of their first five matches in the competition, giving up leads more than once. They got their first win of the campaign against Crystal Palace at the end of September before getting their first clean sheet in a 0-0 draw with Newcastle United before the break. The Toffees are winless in their last 14 Premier League away games though (D5 L9).

Ipswich are still seeking their first win since returning to the top-flight. After losing their first two matches, in a tough start against Liverpool and then Manchester City, they registered four consecutive draws. However, they went into the international break on the back of a heavy 4-1 defeat to West Ham, though Kieran McKenna will take faith that never before have Ipswich gone eight games at the start of a top-flight campaign without a win before.
