We’re entering the final stages of the Premier League season, and everything comes down to four teams: Man City, Liverpool and Arsenal. The Citizens have it all in their hands, as they are yet to face the other too. Their first encounter comes today, as they face off against the Reds at Anfield. Liverpool are yet to lose at home this season, so this will be the toughest test yet for Guardiola’s side in their hunt for a fourth straight title. Arsenal narrowly won at home to Brentford yesterday, which makes this game even more decisive, as a draw between the two giants would put the Gunners in the driver’s seat.
Both teams are on amazing runs of form, with Liverpool winning nine of their last ten in all competitions – only losing away to Arsenal. City, meanwhile, have been on an absolute tear, winning eighteen of their last twenty since early December, drawing just twice in the league during that span.In addition, both teams should play with what is close to a starting XI. Grealish and Doku are doubtful for City, while Liverpool will miss Alexander Arnold and Alisson from their starting eleven. That should make for an intense match where both teams undoubtedly need to try and take home all three points.
In the reverse fixture, Liverpool held on for an important 1-1 draw at the Etihad, where almost no team has managed to leave with points this season. It is difficult to give a prediction for this match, as the importance of the clash will certainly weigh on the players’ mind. Had this game been played at the Etihad, City would no doubt have been slight favourites. At Anfield, its risky to bet against Liverpool. I will stay on the fence and predict a risky draw between these two giants (3.75). The bookmakers have City as slight favourites, but I would not be so sure, even though their form recently has been extraordinary.An Over 2.5 at 1.52 is a less risky play that is likely to happen given the firepower on show.
