Four tackles in midfield
Palacios generated four tackles (two won) and two interceptions in Friday's 2-0 defeat against Liverpool.
Analysis: Palacios was tasked with slowing down the Liverpool midfield and he did passably well. The midfielder was busy shutting down wave-after-wave of attacks and causing issues for the Liverpool midfield. He didn't get a chance to get forward in a game that Liverpool controlled, but it was still a nice performance even in a loss.
Set for Ipswich debut
Palacios is expected to make his Ipswich debut in Sunday's Premier League clash against Manchester United, according to coach Gary O'Neil. "I'm sure we'll see Exequiel on Sunday."
Analysis: Palacios is set for immediate involvement after completing his move from Bayer Leverkusen on Thursday. The Argentina international brings significant Bundesliga and international experience to Ipswich's midfield and should provide an important option with Azor Matusiwa and Jack Taylor unavailable. It remains to be seen whether Palacios is ready to start so soon after his arrival, but he should at least feature off the bench against Manchester United.
