THE LOWDOWN

MAN CITY

  • Reigning Premier League champions Man City boast a slender one point lead on Liverpool going into this fixture and know that victory would put them in an incredible position going into the final stretch of the season.
  • Talismanic centre-back Ruben Dias will not recover from injury in time to play, which means a combination of John Stones, Aymeric Laporte and Nathan Ake is expected to line-up in central defence for City.

LIVERPOOL

  • Liverpool found themselves top if only for a couple of hours last weekend, but here they have the chance to reach the summit of the Premier League for much longer than that if Jurgen Klopp’s side were to gain three points here.
  • Klopp has no injury worries as it stands and could well have a full-strength squad to choose from for their short trip to Manchester, which is a huge luxury for the German boss.

THE PREDICTION

The biggest clash of this season’s Premier League so far see the two best sides by some distance slug it out, with the winners taking a giant step towards potentially winning this season’s title. The onus is on Liverpool to come out and win the game if they are to go above Man City, however Pep Guardiola’s men with home advantage in their favour aren’t expected to play conservatively knowing the danger that brings against such a strong opposition. The last three fixtures between these two have seen both teams score, the most recent clash a thrilling 2-2 draw at Anfield. A similar encounter may well be on the cards at the Etihad Stadium and backing both teams to score along with over 2.5 goals has to be favoured.

Tip: BOTH TEAMS TO SCORE AND OVER 2.5 GOALS
