The Premier League returns for another weekend full of stacked top flight action as we gear up for the final few months of the campaign. It’s pretty clear at this point what everyone is aiming for from top to bottom, but there are still plenty of twists and turns awaiting us on that journey. Today, we’ll be taking a look at what should be a fun encounter between Liverpool and Manchester City.
Liverpool Form GuideLiverpool are coming off the back of a big League Cup win and while they should be allowed to take time to celebrate that, they’ll also want to keep their eyes on the future. With this being Jurgen Klopp’s final season in charge, they need to do everything in their power to help send him out on top - and if they play their cards right, that could mean winning the quadruple.
Nottingham Forest and Liverpool played out a lively game last weekend with plenty of chances flying in at either end. Ultimately, it came down to a late, late winner from Darwin Nunez in the 99th minute to give Liverpool the victory.
Manchester City Form GuideManchester City are once again considered to be the clear favourites to win the Premier League title, and it’s not hard to see why. Pep Guardiola has built an absolute juggernaut of a squad and as we look ahead to the future, you’d have to imagine that the only big question mark is surrounding the punishment they could receive for their financial charges off the pitch.
City started off slow against rivals Manchester United, going 1-0 down courtesy of a wonder strike from Marcus Rashford. Alas, they eventually woke up from their nap, going on to pick up a 3-1 win that keeps their title push on track.
Match PredictionThis is a huge game for the title race and we think that Liverpool getting a few players back from injury could prove to be vital for them. City are going to bring their very best but this is Anfield we’re talking about here. In terms of a prediction, we’re going to shoot for a draw.
