LiontipsLiverpool vs Manchester City: betting tip (cf 3.00) and bets on the English Premier League match
Command Analysis
Current form
Liverpool are approaching the upcoming crucial match in a good playing tone against the background of two confident home victories. First, they managed to defeat Qarabag 6-0 in the final round of the Champions League, and then they dealt with Newcastle without any problems in the Premier League (4:1). Plus, the Merseysiders played their last match on January 31, so there's no need to talk about any busy schedule right now.
Overall, the Premier League season is not going as planned. There is no question of any fight for the title, it is important to have a powerful ending in order to win a ticket to the Champions League for next season. By the start of Round 25, Arne Slot's team was only in sixth place with 39 points and two points behind the top 4. Too often, Liverpool misfires during the season. So, only in the last five rounds there were unnecessary point losses with Fulham (2:2), Burnley (1:1), Bournemouth (2:3). With such results, it's hard to count on a place in the top four. At the same time, the Merseysiders are able to tune in to matches against top rivals, because in the same period they drew with Arsenal (0:0) and were not inferior to the leader in any way.
Liverpool played the overall stage convincingly in the Champions League. In eight rounds, they managed to score 18 points, with which the Reds finished in third place and won a ticket to the 1/8 finals.
Disqualifications and injuries
Bajcetic, Bradley, Dunns, Leonie, Isak and Frimpong will not play today due to injuries. Gomez's entry into the field is questionable.
Interesting betting trends
- In four of the last five matches, Liverpool have won in the first half.
- In 11 of the previous 12 matches in the Premier League, the Merseysiders did not lose.
- In six of Liverpool's last eight Premier League matches, there has been an exchange of goals scored.
Approximate composition: Alisson – Soboslai, Konate, van Dijk, Kerkez – Gravenberch, McAllister – Salah, Wirtz, Gakpo – Ekitike.
Current form
Manchester City had a great opportunity in recent rounds to get close to Arsenal in the standings, but they didn't take advantage of their chances. The Gunners lost points in the Premier League three times in the previous five games, and the townspeople performed even worse in the same period – they won only one victory. As a result, on the eve of the start of the 25th round, Josep Guardiola's team is in second position and six points behind the leader. And it's lucky that Aston Villa is far from at the peak of their form and did not take their chance.
Manchester City has been lacking stability throughout the season. You can see frequent point losses in matches where, it would seem, there is an advantage, they lead the score, but some segments fail. So, in the previous round, the townspeople played away with Tottenham, led 2-0 in the score, but in the second half they conceded two goals and eventually it ended in a 2-2 draw. It is noticeable that Manchester City are having a hard time playing away matches: they scored only 18 points in 12 matches played in other arenas, this is only the fifth indicator in the Premier League.
In the Champions League, Guardiola's team was also not stable and barely won a ticket to the 1/8 finals, taking eighth place. The key was the 2-0 home victory over Galatasaray in the final round.
Disqualifications and injuries
Kovacic, Stones, Guardiola, Savinho and Doku are injured, Sherki, Diaz and Silva are questionable.
Interesting betting trends
- In five of the last six matches, Manchester City players fouled less often than their opponents.
- The citizens have only one defeat in the last 12 matches in the Premier League.
- No more than two goals have been scored in five of Manchester City's previous six Premier League games.
Approximate composition: Donnarumma – Nunesh, Husanov, Gekhi, O'Reilly – Rhodri – Foden, Reynders, Marmush, Semenyo – Holland.

1.90Tip and bets
Both Liverpool and Manchester City have not shown stable results throughout the season, and it is not easy to give preference to anyone today in terms of betting on the outcome. Nevertheless, several factors speak in favor of the owners. The Merseysiders, unlike their opponents, have not had a very busy schedule of games lately, the previous match was held on January 31. In the last two matches, Arne Slot's team scored a total of 10 goals against Qarabag and Newcastle, it seems that the attack began to demonstrate the level that had been expected for a long time. It is also important that the upcoming match will take place at Anfield. Manchester City have won just one game here in the last 15 matches, while Liverpool have won 12 of their 19 games at home since the start of the season, taking into account all competitions. We believe that the Merseysiders will be closer to victory today.
Our prediction is that Liverpool will win with an Asian handicap (0) for a coefficient of 1.75
Bet on the total
The head-to-head matches between Liverpool and Manchester City have not been very productive lately, and tactical fighting and careful play are more common. So, in the previous five face-to-face meetings, no more than three goals were scored. It is unlikely that today, given the tournament position, we will see an open game.
The second bet is a total of less than three goals with a coefficient of 1.90
A bet on the exact difference in the bill
One does not have to wait for one of the teams to achieve a crushing victory with a difference of more than two goals. Nevertheless, we have rivals comparable in class, with an excellent selection of performers in each of the positions. Liverpool have scored their last two home wins in face-to-face meetings with an advantage of one or two goals, which we are waiting for today.
The betting tip is a victory for Liverpool with an advantage of one or two goals with a coefficient of 3.00
