Man City vs Liverpool Prediction
With plenty of attacking talent on show, there’s no shortage of options in the shots markets, but Liverpool midfielder Dominik Szoboszlai looks a standout price at 29/20 with Ladbrokes to record 1+ shot on target on Sunday.
The Hungarian skipper has three goals to his name this season for club and country, including a spectacular winner against title rivals Arsenal, which remains the Gunners' only defeat of the season.
This selection has landed in three of his last four Premier League games, while he impressively accumulated four shots on target in the midweek win over Real Madrid, during which he assisted Alexis Mac Allister for the winner.
Adding to the appeal, Szoboszlai found the net at the Etihad in last season’s 2-0 victory over Man City.
For the Bet Builder, I have teamed an Erling Haaland goal (shock) with a booking for his teammate Phil Foden, which combine for a nice 12/1 price with bet365. The bookmaker’s handy ‘Sub On, Play On’ feature also applies here, meaning if either player is substituted, the bet continues with their replacement.
Haaland's mubers this season are extraordinary. A goal in the midweek win over Borussia Dortmund thundered his 2025/26 tally to 27 goals in 17 games for Man City and Norway - failing to score on only two occasions.
The Norwegian is now just two goals shy of 100 Premier League goals, and a brace on Sunday would see him become the fastest player ever to reach the century mark.
Meanwhile, Phil Foden is rediscovering top form and netted twice in the win over Dortmund. But it’s not goals we’re backing him for here -it's discipline. The England international has racked up three yellow cards in his last five league games, with Haaland scoring in two of those games, making this a tempting option at a double-figure price to occur once again.
Man City vs Liverpool Team News
Rodri's inclusion is up in the air after he missed the Dortmund win, while Mateo Kovacic remains out for Man City.
The big news for Liverpool is the return of Alexander Isak to training this week, but it remains a doubt whether he'll be risked for Sunday. Arne Slot has said he will wait and see on Andy Robertson, who has played three games in a week, while keeper Alisson Becker will return after the international break.
