Manchester City is set to take on Liverpool in Premier League on Sunday, 10 April 2022 at 21:00 PM IST
A high-octane clash is on the cards as defending Premier League Champions Manchester City take on Liverpool at home on Sunday. This match could also go on to decide the fate of the two teams in this season as a win for either side in this encounter will hand them a significant lead in the Premier League title race.
City are currently sitting at the top of the table with 73 points but Liverpool are just one point behind them at the second place, having played an equal number of games. Both sides have been unstoppable in offense and rock solid in defence.
Manchester City have scored 70 goals while conceding only 18. Liverpool, on the other hand, have netted 77 while letting in 20 goals. As far as recent form goes, the Reds have been more consistent as they have won all of their last five encounters.
City, however, have won only three out of their last five matches and thats why Liverpool are slight favorites to win this match, even though this is an away game for them.
