Man City welcome the league leaders Liverpool to the Etihad on Sunday. Liverpool are lookingto extend their lead at the top to 11 points over Arsenal after the Gunners’ 1-0 defeat to West Ham. Manchester City could go above Nottingham Forest into 3rd if they win and Forest lose to Newcastle.
Liverpool are having a great season under Arne Slot and have the chance to put themselves in a great position to win the league with a positive result in Manchester. They have been handed a huge boost following Arsenal’s home defeat to West Ham. The Reds have lost just 1/26 league games demonstrating their consistency this season. They will look to take advantage of an unconvincing Manchester City defence. Liverpool have scored 62 league goals which is 9 more than any other team and we expect them to get plenty of chances today.
Meanwhile, Manchester City have endured an below par and inconsistent season. In fact, they have conceded more goals in the league already than they did in the whole of last season. This puts into perspective how much they have struggled defensively. Recent injuries to Manuel Akanji and John Stones have added to these defensive problems. The blue side of Manchester have failed to beat Liverpool in any of their last 3 attempts which will not give them much encouragement.
Mohammed Salah is having the best season of his career with 24 goals and 15 assists in just 26 appearances in the league. The Egyptian has registered 1+ Shots on target in 25/26 league matches. With his form this season and the oppositions defensive issues, it is likely he will cause problems and register at least 1 shot on target in this match.
TIP: Liverpool Double Chance & Salah 1+ Shot on Target @ 1.80
