Man City vs Liverpool prediction, odds and betting offer
Liverpool is set to journey a mere 39 miles to Manchester City's home ground, the Etihad Stadium, for a crucial Premier League face-off
by Tom Phillips · The MirrorLiverpool are leading the Premier League table with an eight-point advantage over their closest competitors, Arsenal. Given that Arsenal is scheduled to play against the underperforming West Ham on Saturday, Liverpool's lead could potentially be reduced to five points before their game against Manchester City even begins.
In previous weeks, Liverpool had the chance to secure their hold on the championship title. However, unexpected draws with Everton and Aston Villa have left room for a possible late surge from Arsenal.
Liverpool's recent performance has been less than stellar. They barely secured a 2-1 victory over Wolves last weekend, failing to make a single shot in the second half - a first since the 2003-04 season began. Despite creating numerous opportunities against Aston Villa, their lack of precision in finishing was evident. Only three out of 17 attempts were on target, including a notable miss from Darwin Nunez.
Despite these setbacks, Liverpool aims to achieve an uncommon Premier League double over City this season. They emerged victorious in their previous encounter at Anfield in December with a 2-0 win. If they triumph on Sunday, it will be only the third time they've achieved this feat.
Liverpool also has an impressive record of being undefeated in their last 13 Premier League matches held on Sundays. Manchester City will need to bounce back quickly after their disappointing exit from the Champions League midweek at the hands of Real Madrid – marking Pep Guardiola’s first elimination before the quarter-finals in his 16 years of managing.
Nevertheless, there are reasons for optimism for Manchester City following their resounding 4-0 victory over Newcastle last weekend. Omar Marmoush scored an impressive hat-trick within the first 33 minutes of the game. However, the team's offensive strategy for Sunday may depend on the fitness of Erling Haaland, who is striving to recover in time for the match.
