Liverpool vs Man City preview
Heavyweights Liverpool and Manchester City do battle in a titanic clash at Anfield.
It’s difficult to say this isn’t a ‘winner takes all’ affair with the result set to have huge implications on the 2023-24 title race.
The Reds currently lead the division by a single point with 63 points and 11 matches remaining.
They are 2/1 second-favourites to give Jurgen Klopp a fairytale farewell, ahead of 7/2 Arsenal but trailing frontrunners Manchester City at 10/11 in the betting markets.
The Cityzens are in second position on 62 points after 27 matches, one ahead of challengers Arsenal, who host Brentford at the Emirates on Saturday.
Liverpool done superbly well to keep winning despite a swathe of injuries, and enter the contest with fond memories having only lost one of their last 20 home league games against Manchester City.
But it’s an unstoppable force against an immovable object with Pep Guardiola’s side having win their last nine away matches in all competitions, scoring 25 goals in the process.

Liverpool vs Man City betting tips
Phil your boots
Manchester City midfielder Phil Foden is in the form of his life, and the statistics reflect that.
The England star, 23, has been directly involved in 18 Premier League goals this season (11 goals, 7 assists), which is the most he’s ever produced in a single campaign.
Only Jeremy Doku can better Foden’s 171 touches in the opposition penalty area, while only forward Julian Alvarez has created more chances for his Manchester City colleagues.

Yellow warning
Liverpool winger Luis Diaz looks a good price at 7/2 to be carded at Anfield on Sunday.
The Colombian, 27, certainly has a fiery side having committed 32 fouls in 26 Premier League appearances – only Alexis Mac Allister has committed more for Liverpool this campaign.
It’s a critical contest, and if their recent encounters are anything to go by – there should be more than a few tough challenges involved.

Nunez nightmare
Liverpool’s Uruguayan enigma Darwin Nunez is putting up some excellent numbers.
He’s scored 16 goals and provided 11 assists in 39 appearances in all competitions this season – including a brace in the Europa League on Thursday.
Furthermore, he’s registered 17 more attempts at goal (84) than Mohamed Salah in over 200 less minutes. Of Nunez’s 84 attempts, 36 have been on target and he’s averaging a shot every 18.4 minutes.
