Hello everyone, and welcome to The Athletic.
We hope you have enjoyed a happy festive period and, the day after the traditional tranche of Boxing Day fixtures on December 26, the Premier League’s 18th matchweek concludes with two matches today.
The one we’re covering today is Arsenal vs Ipswich Town, two teams at opposite ends of the table who will both be desperate to secure three points today, one way or another.
It promises plenty of tension and drama — so settle down with your gingerbread coffees and leftover turkey sandwiches and let us take you through it
We’ve got it from here.
