Friday’s late Premier League sees Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal welcome Kieran McKenna’s struggling Ipswich to the Emirates to close out the festive fixtures.
PP ambassador Joe Cole foresees a win for the Gunners, albeit not a comfortable one. Plus, he’s backed an assist pick, too, which is covered by Paddy’s Super Sub offer, meaning if the player is substituted, the pick carries over to his replacement.
Let’s get his Arsenal v Ipswich betting tips.

WHERE: The Emirates Stadium, London
TV: Amazon Prime Video / Premier Sports 1
We’ll unlikely see a shock in our final game in this round of fixtures. Ipswich might be able to cause Arsenal some problems. But, after their 3-0 defeat at home to Newcastle and Arsenal’s dominant 5-1 win away at Crystal Palace on Saturday, I can’t see anything other than an Arsenal win.
Despite the result, the visitors will get opportunities, and with their talent going forward, I can see them grabbing a goal. So, I will back both teams to score.
The danger from Ipswich will come down their left-hand side via Leif Davis. With Bukayo Saka out injured, he’ll get more of a license to bomb down that wing and create some chances.
He’s fourth or fifth in chances created in the Premier League this season, which shows the danger he can pose going forward. So I will go a bit rogue and back a Leif Davis assist.
