Liverpool vs Manchester City predictions
Over 4.5 Cards – 3/4 – Sunday’s game on Merseyside is a fixture of real significance. Not only are both teams still unbeaten in the Premier League, but this is also the first match City will contest since the club were officially declared guilty of more than one hundred charges for cheating.
That should guarantee a hostile Anfield atmosphere, which in turn should have a major influence on how the game is played. Expect a real edge as the tackles fly and fouls rack up.
Last season’s encounters between Liverpool and City were ill-tempered too, with six cards brandished in both of the teams’ Premier League meetings. On top of that, another seven players entered the book when the rivals met in the FA Cup quarter-finals in April. A similar card count is anticipated here.

Erling Haaland to Score Anytime against Liverpool – 19/20 – The Norwegian has an excellent scoring record against most teams, though Haaland was particularly devastating against Liverpool last season, scoring home and away against the Reds in the league and bagging a hattrick against them in the FA Cup quarter-finals.
In total, Haaland has scored seven times in nine City outings against Liverpool in all competitions, and ahead of his latest trip to Anfield, the 26-year-old is on a run of ten goals in his last nine starts for club and country combined.

Odds – 10.5/1 – Place bet on Virgin Bet
Enzo Fernandez over 1.5 fouls (4/5) — The bristly midfielder will relish playing in the rabid atmosphere at Anfield on Sunday and his combative streak should guarantee he’s in the thick of the action. Fernandez has been averaging 2.22 fouls per 90 minutes in the Premier League since signing for Man City and he committed four fouls in the Citizens’ last away game at Man Utd.
Antoine Semenyo over 1.5 fouls (11/20)— Often overlooked in this market, Semenyo has committed more fouls in the Premier League this season (7) than any other Man City player. The January acquisition also played twice against Liverpool for City last term, once in the league and once in the cup, and the winger gave away three free kicks on each occasion.
Bradley Barcola over 0.5 shots on target (4/5) — With doubts over the availability of Alexander Isak and Cody Gakpo, Barcola could be the Liverpool attacker to turn to in this market. The Frenchman is still adapting to life in England, though he landed three shots on target in his last three Reds starts combined, and his searing pace could get him behind the City defence.
Dominik Szoboszlai over 1.5 shots (4/6)— Only Alexander Isak (15) has had more shots for Liverpool in the Premier League this season than Szoboszlai (13). The Hungarian long-range shooting and set-piece specialist has been averaging 2.66 shots per 90 minutes in the division so far. The 25-year-old also racked up five shots across three appearances against City last term.
