Liverpool had a tough time before scoring the first goal against Nottingham Forest last weekend. Eventually, in the ninth minute of stoppage time at The City Ground, substitute Darwin Nunez headed home a cross from Alexis MacAllister to give them a lead. It was Jurgen Klopp’s team’s fourth straight league victory.

Seven days ago, Manchester City defeated their fierce rivals in the city with the help of late goals as well. The Cityzens’ hero was Phil Foden, who led a second-half comeback against Manchester United with his brace. The current roster under Pep Guardiola has won 15 of the club’s 16 previous games in all competitions and drawn one.

Liverpool vs Manchester City: Betting Analysis

Home court advantage has influenced recent head-to-head matches between these opponents. Home wins have occurred in four of the last five H2H matches. The return encounter at Etihad Stadium in November last year ended 1-1. In nine of their previous ten matchups, both teams scored.

Liverpool benefited from Darwin Nunez and Mohamed Salah’s returns. Last Saturday at The City Ground, the former played, while the latter made the midweek UEFA Europa League game in Prague. The last six competitive matches saw only two clean sheets for Manchester City.

We doubt they can stop Liverpool’s deadly attack on Sunday. The same goes for Liverpool, despite three straight clean sheets in all competitions. The Reds have had a shaky backline all season. Given the attacking talent on both ends and the H2H scoring streak, Sunday may see a goal frenzy. Key pick: Over 3.5 goals FT at 2.30 odds.

Erling Haaland leads the Premier League with 18 goals in 22 outings, despite recent mishaps. Five goals from the Norwegian superstar helped City beat Luton 6-2 in the FA Cup at Kenilworth Road. Few games give 2.10 odds for Haaland to score at any time. We think the price is worth it.
