What channel is Ipswich v Liverpool Premier League match on? TV coverage, live stream and kick-off time
Check out how to watch Ipswich v Liverpool in the Premier League, including TV channel, radio coverage and kick-off time.
Premier League football returns to Portman Road after 22 years away on Saturday lunchtime, as Ipswich Town host Liverpool in their 2024/25 opener.
Kieran McKenna inspired a true fairy tale last season as the Tractor Boys proved the Championship's surprise package – finishing second to win back-to-back promotions and end a wait for top-flight football that has gone on for more than two decades.
The highly-rated Town boss has been backed in the transfer market as the club chiefs look to give him the tools he needs to keep Ipswich up, and Saturday's visit from Liverpool should offer an early hint at his chances of doing so.
It's a big day for the Reds, too, as Arne Slot manages his first competitive game since being appointed as Jürgen Klopp's replacement. The Dutchman is tasked with filling huge shoes, and will know that a winning start is the best way to ease the pressure on him.
Town fans will have been dreaming about this day for decades, so it's fitting that their first game back in the top fight comes against a bona fide heavyweight like Liverpool.
