Manchester City v Liverpool – City marginal favourites

Klopp has injury concerns with Virgil Van Djik and Fabinho absent for quite some time in the defense. Key players Thiago Alcantara and Naby Keita seem doubtful too.

Manchester City predicted line-up in a (4-3-3) formation:

Ederson (goal); Walker, Ruben Dias, Laporte, Joao Cancelo; De Bruyne, Rodri, Gundogan; Foden, Jesus, Sterling

Liverpool predicted line-up in a (4-3-3) formation:

Alisson (goal); Alexander-Arnold, Gomez, Matip, Robertson; Keita, Henderson, Wijnaldum; Mane, Jota, Salah

Manchester City v Liverpool Verdict

Man City have won their last 3 home Premier League outings against Liverpool by an aggregate score of 11-1.

But Guardiola's history against Klopp is poor having lost 8 times to the German, more than he has against any other manager in his career.

Liverpool are looking to keep their first clean sheet in 11 EPL outings at the Etihad having conceded 26 goals from their previous 10 trips to the venue.

Thus history favours the hosts at Etihad on Sunday as the UK bookmaker‘s odds suggest.

But then, Liverpool have rarely been so well-prepared to win as they are this time around. So, expected a real thriller.
