Liverpool are likely to win their match against Manchester City on Sunday, February 8th.
Manchester City
Manchester City will try to keep their Premier League title hopes alive by visiting a resurgent Liverpool in a match that kicks off at Anfield on Sunday afternoon. Pep Guardiola’s City squad (14-5-5, 47 points) enters the weekend in second place and six points behind Arsenal, who will host Sunderland on Saturday.
And the Cityzens are looking to turn a three-game winless league run away from home, with their last away win in the league coming in late December. Finally, City gave back its two-goal advantage in the 2-2 draw against Tottenham Hotspur. Before that, there was a 2-0 defeat in the Manchester Derby and a goalless draw at Sunderland.
Manchester City’s form has been much better at home and they beat Newcastle United 3-1 on Wednesday in the second leg of their comfortable win in the latest Carabao Cup semi-final. But whatever the pitch, Guardiola admits his players are not consistently in the form he would like.
Guardiola suggested that Erling Haaland, who is again the leader in the Premier League by scoring 20 goals so far, will be available after suffering a slight injury due to not being on the bench in the Newcastle match. However, it is not yet known whether the Norwegian star will start the match.
Liverpool
Sixth-placed Liverpool (11-7-6, 39 points) are arguably beyond contention to be league champions again, but they are within two points of the UEFA Champions League places after a run of just one defeat in 12 league games (5-1-6).
The Reds have had a full week to prepare for City after defeating Newcastle United 4-1 last Saturday in one of their most decisive league performances of the season.
Hugo Ekiike increased his goal tally to 10 in his first season in the Premier League. And Liverpool continued to show the determined finishing form they showed in the 6-0 Champions League win over Qarabag on January 28, which helped them finish the league stage in third place.
