Tottenham Hotspur vs Ipswich Town LIVE: Premier League result, final score and reaction
Follow all the action from Tottenham Hotspur Stadium
Follow live coverage as Tottenham Hotspur face Ipswich Town today in the Premier League. Another top-flight season will be covered in full right here with The Independent, as reigning champions Manchester City look to make it an unprecedented five titles in a row come the end of 2024/25.
The likes of Arsenal and Liverpool will be chasing Pep Guardiola's side, but just as fascinating will be the race for Champions League places, with more teams than ever before having designs on top-four finishes. Chelsea remain big-spending, Manchester United's latest rebuild continues and both Tottenham and Newcastle will expect improvements this year - yet it was Aston Villa who snared fourth last term.
Meanwhile, it's Southampton, Leicester City and Ipswich Town who made it back to the elite after promotion last year and each will have hope they can make it more than a one-year stay. Follow the latest live action from the Premier League below:
Tottenham Hotspur vs Ipswich Town
Hutchinson has picked up a knock and needs some treatment from the Ipswich medical team. However, it seems the former Chelsea forward will be okay to carry on.

YELLOW! Tuanzebe picks up the first booking of this contest after stupidly kicking the ball away.

CHANCE! One thing you can guarantee is that Tottenham games are never boring! This time, the home side come forward with Solanke. The England international gets into space from 15 yards and his low strike is pushed behind by Muric in the Ipswich Town goal.

SHOT! The amount of space Tottenham are allowing Ipswich to play in will worry Postecoglou. A ball breaks out to Davis about 22 yards out but his effort is blocked by Romero.
Tottenham Hotspur vs Ipswich Town
Tottenham have won 32 of their last 36 Premier League home games against promoted sides (D2 L2), and haven’t failed to score in any of their last 42 such games since a 1-0 loss to Wolves in December 2009. The hosts are capable of creating chances for fun as shown through their current xG of 0.89 but are also vulnerable in defence.

After a frantic opening 10 minutes, the game seems to have settled down with both teams retaining possession. None of Tottenham’s last 26 Premier League home games have finished in a draw (W18 L8). The last team to have a longer such run in the top-flight were Liverpool (28 between April 1963 and August 1964).
Tottenham Hotspur vs Ipswich Town
Ipswich remain winless in their 10 Premier League games this season (D5 L5), their longest run without a win from the start of a top-flight season. They’ve lost their last two away games 4-1 at West Ham and 4-3 at Brentford, last conceding 4+ goals in three consecutive away league games in March 1964.

END-TO-END! It's Tottenham's turn to attack. Solanke drives an effort from 20 yards that O'Shea gets a fantastic block on to take it over the crossbar. Following that attack, Son then cuts in off the left-hand side and tests Muric with an effort but it's straight at the Ipswich goalkeeper.

CROSSBAR! It's all action so far in the capital! Following great work from Szmodics, Ipswich have another corner kick. The delivery is whipped in by Davis to the back post and Burgess rises highest but his header loops back over Vicario and cannons back off the bar. The hosts are living dangerously.
