Match Preview of Man City vs Liverpool
The reigning champions meet the faltering challengers in a blockbuster Anfield encounter on Sunday afternoon, as Liverpool host Manchester City in the Premier League. A 13-point chasm already separates the two powerhouses in the table, with the Reds going down 3-2 to Arsenal last weekend while City bested Southampton 4-0.
For the past five years, the Premier League title race has almost always come down to a two-horse battle between Liverpool and Man City, but Reds boss Jurgen Klopp has already admitted that Sunday's clash will not decide the destiny of the title for his side this time around.
As Arsenal and Man City continue to ride off into the sunset, Liverpool were left to rue a batch of controversial officiating decisions in last week's 3-2 defeat to the Gunners, but the wounded Reds were a different kettle of fish for Rangers to handle in the Champions League.
Tottenham Hotspur attacker Son Heung-min scored a 13-minute hat-trick against Leicester City off the bench earlier this season, but anything that the South Korean can do, Mohamed Salah can do better, as he scored the fastest treble in Champions League history as a substitute in a 7-1 demolition of the Scottish giants.
Salah's strikes came in the 75th, 80th and 81st minute of a contest in which Scott Arfield had initially put Rangers one goal to the good, but Liverpool's Egyptian wing king, Darwin Nunez, Harvey Elliott and Roberto Firmino (2) completed a stunning turnaround for those in red.
Our Predicted Lineups
Man City possible starting lineup:Ederson; Cancelo, Akanji, Dias, Ake; Silva, Rodri, De Bruyne; Foden, Haaland, Grealish
Liverpool United possible starting lineup: starting lineup:Alisson; Gomez, Konate, Van Dijk, Robertson; Henderson, Fabinho, Thiago; Salah, Nunez, Jota
Who will win the match?
We say: Liverpool 2-3 Manchester City. Goals are virtually always guaranteed when this clash of the titans occurs, and Liverpool will certainly have to make up for their defensive deficiencies with attacking acumen if they are to preserve their stellar unbeaten Anfield run.
