Liverpool vs Manchester City Preview – Premier League Prediction & Betting Tips 01/12/2024
Liverpool vs Manchester City Premier League Prediction Match Details
The race for the Premier League crown is going to look tense on Sunday as Liverpool and Manchester City clash in an electrifying mood at Anfield. The result of the game might have a huge impact on the Premier League title race.
Liverpool Preview & Form
Liverpool has been flying relatively high with form this season in all competitions, having recorded impressive victories in each of their last six matches and remaining unbeaten in their last 15 matches, where they recorded a commanding 14 wins and a draw. The Reds, in their last league outing, claimed an impressive 3-2 win over Southampton away in the Premier League thanks to Mohamed Salah’s brace, which propelled the team to victory. Arne Slot will be hoping his side capitalizes on Pep Guardiola’s team’s woeful form to go 11 points clear of the defending champions. The Merseysiders will feel confident on their home soil, having ruthlessly beaten Real Madrid 2-0 in their Champions League midweek game at the Anfield Stadium.
Arne Slot’s side’s only home blemish of the season was their shocking 1-0 loss against Nottingham Forest at home on matchday four, and since then, they have won each of their home games impressively. They have been consistent in terms of finding the back of the net at home, having scored at least two goals in each of their games since the defeat.
Manchester City Preview & Form
Manchester City is experiencing their worst-ever run of form under Pep Guardiola, as the Citizens are winless in their last six matches, losing five in a row and playing a draw. The Citizens were outclassed by Tottenham the last time out in the league as Pep Guardiola’s side was ruthlessly beaten 4-0 by Spurs at the Etihad Stadium. And on Tuesday evening in the Champions League, City surrendered their three-goal lead against Feyenoord, leaving Pep Guardiola frustrated. City fans will consider their trip to Anfield an important clash in their hope of defending their Premier League title crown.
Pep Guardiola’s side has looked shaky in their road games, as they are currently on a four-match losing streak. Their defense has looked vulnerable, having conceded in each of their last five away games in a row.
