Match Preview

In our Man City vs Liverpool FC preview today we try to determine the winner of the Champions League Quarter Final second leg between two of the English Premier League’s top clubs. The Reds trounced the Citizens 3-0 in the first leg in front of a boisterous Anfield crowd. But even though a three goal margin is a healthy one, it’s never safe to dismiss Pep Guardiola’s team.

The Sky Blues could have clinched the Premiership title by the time they contest the second leg next week. A win against Manchester rivals United will confirm Man City as champions and they have lost just one of their last forty matches at the Etihad. That sensational home record is worth remembering for our Man City vs Liverpool FC betting tips later.

Liverpool too must come through a local derby before they face the Citizens again. The Merseysiders will believe they can beat anyone at present, they have only lost one of their last nine matches in all competitions. Pool have also won five of their last seven away fixtures. Interestingly, they have only failed to score once in their last eighteen matches on the road.

Man City vs Liverpool FC Prediction and Betting Advice

The home side come into next week’s crucial second leg knowing that only a big win will see them through to the next round. Overturning a three goal deficit might ultimately prove beyond them, though they should still be made favourites to win the game in our Man City vs Liverpool FC bets. The Sky Blues home record in 2017/18 is nearly perfect.

The English champions elect have won fourteen of their fifteen Premier League contests at the Etihad since last August. They remain one of only two unbeaten teams at home in the division this season. The Reds have only won once in five trips to the blue side of Manchester and they were hammered 5-0 the last time they played at the Etihad in early September of last year.

Jurgen Klopp’s men are strong favourites to win the overall tie and progress to the next round of the Champions League. However, the Citizens strength on their own patch should see them restore a little pride in the second leg. Our research shows that the best Champions League football odds for the home victory are at Betway Sports.

This second of today’s Man City vs Liverpool FC predictions might just be the value bet of the week. Both teams involved in this epic UCL tussle are all out attacking, free scoring football teams.

Man City and Liverpool are currently the top two goalscorers in the Premier League with eighty eight and seventy five goals respectively.
