The vacant first line in the table was occupied by Liverpool at once. The guests are the most consistent team in this campaign, tasting no defeat in 20 rounds. They played level only against Chelsea, Arsenal, and Manchester City themselves.
The coming match may end in 3 ways, as they say. The opponents are currently equal. Both are leading the championship. Either side can win tomorrow. Of 5 latest encounters with Manchester City, Liverpool won 4. In one match, the teams registered a draw. So, we’d better not predict a winner; but we may count on an entertaining match, as this will be a meeting of 2 most effective teams of this run. Liverpool count 48 goals made, Manchester City boast the best league attack that produced 54 goals. The hosts’ attack is really lethal – in the last round, they shipped 5 goals to Arsenal, before, they netted 4 times to Newcastle United. 2 rounds earlier, the ‘Citizens’ also scored 3 goals to the ‘Red Devils’. This is an unstoppable goal-making machine, actually, same as other teams guided by Pep Guardiola, Barcelona and Bayern Munich. This is the club’s playing philosophy – the more you score, the closer you are to the win. A good one. There is one fault here though – the defensive play. It is quite clear that mistakes in defense are normally compensated by the attack, anyways, Manchester City have already missed 16 goals in this season. Mane, Firmino, Shaqiri, Salah, and Co will probably upset the ‘Citizens’, maybe even more than once. Sterling, Gundogan, De Bruyne, Sane, Aguero, however, will get back for that, and will score to Allison’s net (who’s been securing Liverpool goal in all 20 rounds), despite the fact that Liverpool have missed only 8 goals in this league. More than one City’s goal may be expected, as to us. 15 of 20 latest opponents’ head-to-head steaks produced over 2.5 goals. Another goal-fest may entertain the fans of both sides tomorrow.
Prediction for the match: Over 2.5 goals.
