Liverpool take on the visitors Manchester City in the round 28 match of English Premier League. The match will be played on Sunday, February 10th at Anfield (Liverpool).
Liverpool have once again faced an incredible wave of injuries. In the last round, they had to figure out how to cope without ten key players, starting from Alisson and ending with Salah. And Darwin Nunez only came on as a substitute – and it was the Uruguayan who scored the only goal in the clash against Nottingham Forest on the 9th added minute. Before that, they won a hard-fought battle, thanks to van Dijk's only goal in extra time, securing the League Cup title. And just three days later, the Reds defeated Southampton 3-0 in the country's cup with goals from 18-year-olds, Kumas and Dence. There was no break this week either – the Englishmen started the playoffs in the Europa League. There, they topped their group, and on Thursday in Prague, they were lucky to win 5-1 against Sparta.

Manchester City plans to repeat last year's achievements. Under Guardiola, the Citizens have become the dominant force in English football. And in 2023, the long battle in the Champions League finally ended in victory. The Noisy Neighbors allowed the season to be crowned with a treble, and after the summer break, they added debut victories in the UEFA Super Cup and the Club World Cup. Undoubtedly, a maximalist like Pep clearly does not want to let go of what he has won. And, not particularly bothered by defeats in the Super Cup and even the English League Cup, in the other key tournaments, Guardiola's charges continue to fight for titles. They eliminated Tottenham in the cup thanks to Ake's late goal, after which Holland and company defeated Luton. And in the Champions League, there were no problems not only in the group stage but also with Copenhagen – they beat them away 3-1 in February. So this week's game with the Danes was played at home without any tournament intrigue. As a result, the score was repeated. But in the Premier League, there was a tough match last round – a derby against Manchester United. There, after quickly conceding and losing the first half, they eventually rallied to a resolute 3-1 win thanks to Foden's brace and Holland's goal.
Last season, the Reds initially won in the Super Cup and in the league. But then the Citizens knocked them out in extra time in the cup, and in April, they defeated them 4-1. In the current cycle, there was a 1-1 draw at the home of Guardiola's wards. The Citizens are considered the favorite even away from home. But this is perhaps an underestimation of the Reds – let's bet that they will not lose at home at Anfield.
Prediction for the match: Manchester City not to lose (X2).
