In the Premier League rankings, Manchester City is presently in second position and has been playing well this year. The defending champions must step it up this weekend after FC Copenhagen held them to a scoreless draw in their last match.

On the other hand, Liverpool has struggled to live up to expectations this season and is now in 11th position in the league rankings. The Merseyside team will be confident going into this match after crushing Rangers 7-1 in the UEFA Champions League.

Liverpool vs Manchester City Head-to-head

  • Liverpool won the previous two encounters against Manchester City, but both were in cup competitions.
  • Man City are winless in the previous four encounters with Liverpool.
  • We have seen at least four goals in each of the previous five head to head matches between these rivals.

Liverpool vs Manchester City Prediction

This year, Manchester City has been in fantastic shape and is still one of the favorites to win the Premier League. Erling Haaland has been on fire thus far and is determined to leave his imprint this weekend.

Liverpool has mostly played poorly this season, but they are still capable of surprising. However, Manchester City is now the superior team and should be able to prevail in this match.

Prediction: Liverpool 2-3 Manchester City

Liverpool vs Manchester City Team News

Liverpool went to Arsenal last weekend knowing it would be a tough test, but it was a test they would eventually fail. While Liverpool was able to equalize twice via Nunez and Firmino, Arsenal was able to score three goals through Martinelli and a brace from Saka. As a result, Arsenal left with three points and a major confidence boost as they prepare to contend for the crown this year.

Liverpool Predicted Lineup: Alisson, Konaté, van Dijk, Tsimikas, Gomez , Henderson, Thiago, Salah, Jota, Firmino & Núñez

Last time out, Man City defeated Southampton at home with ease, as was predicted. Cancelo opened the scoring in the 20th minute, and Foden scored a skillful second goal to make it 2-0 just before halftime. Mahrez scored early in the second half after being reinstated to the starting lineup, and Haaland added his 15th league goal of the season in the 65th to complete the 4-0 triumph.

Man City Predicted Lineup: Ederson, Cancelo, Aké, Dias, Akanji, De Bruyne, Silva, Rodri, Foden, Mahrez & Haaland
