Amfield will be agog this Sunday when defending champions, Manchester City storm Liverpool in one of the week 13 matches of the English Premier League. Matches between both sides are always explosive as it is often a top of the table clash or a title decider.
In terms of performance in recent times, Liverpool tend to be in ascendancy while Manchester City seem to be stuttering. While Liverpool are top in the UEFA Champions League and the Premier League tables, City have lost couple of matches that have seen them go eight points behind Liverpool in the league and are 17th on the Champions League table.
Both sides have met 54 times with Liverpool having the upper hand with 21 wins while the Citizens have won 12 times. Amfield have not been very favourable for the defending champions as they have only won twice. Their last two matches ended in a 1-1 draw.
This match will mark the commencement of a new tactical battle between Liverpool’s new manager, Arne Slot and Pep Guardiola of Manchester City. Though it is early days in the league, the outcome of this match will go a long way to determine whether Arne Slot will win the league in his first season or Guardiola will come from behind to clinch the title as he often does.
