It leaves them four points adrift of the leaders at the top of the table, although it is still early days for Iraola on Merseyside.
Since their 2-2 draw with Oliver Glasner‘s side, the Reds have completed the signing of Bradley Barcola from PSG, with the Frenchman joining in a deal worth up to £123million.
Gary O’Neil’s side have had a turbulent start upon returning to the top-flight – the Tractor Boys beat Sunderland 2-1 on the opening weekend before being thrashed 5-2 by Manchester United last time out.
Ahead of the clash at Portman Road, SunSport has all the information for the opening game of the third weekend of the new Premier League season.
