Manchester City Can Open An Almost Insurmountable Gap
A few months ago, Manchester City seemed to have the title in hand, but the continuous punctures that it was adding as the days went by has led to a drastic reduction in the difference over Liverpool, to the point of reaching this day with just one advantage over the only team that has been able to keep up with Pep Guardiola’s team.
If we review the numbers in the last five days, we find a balance of three wins, a draw and a defeat, with outstanding performances such as the 4-1 endorsed by their neighbors Manchester United and also disappointments such as the goalless draw at Crystal’s home Palace or the 2-3 conceded against Tottenham, one of the most fit teams of this stage of the campaign. In any case, these punctures do not prevent us from talking about the best team in the Premier League in defensive matters with only 18 goals conceded, while it is the second most prolific in front of the rival frame with 70 goals scored.
Regarding records as a local team, City has added some very positive records of 11 wins, 1 draw and 2 losses, with 40 goals for and 10 against. If we review the five most recent, we only find the aforementioned 2-3 against Tottenham, and we must not forget that, expanding the records with what happened in the first leg of the Champions League round of 16, we must also have 1 -0 over Atlético de Madrid last Tuesday.
Liverpool’s goal is to depend on himself
Liverpool’s accounts in order to win the 2021-22 Premier League are very simple. In case of winning this match, it will depend on himself to finish in the first position, while a draw would force him to win everything and wait for a puncture from City and a defeat would already have to wait for two negative results from the Skyblues.
In this way, the premise is to increase the streak of 10 consecutive victories that it already accumulates in the English national championship, the same one that has helped to gradually reduce the distance with the head of the table. In the case of the Reds, their scoring figures indicate that they are the team that has the easiest time scoring with 77 goals, 20 of them the work of Mohamed Salah, while they have only received a total of 20 goals, two more than the City.
That good streak of victories means that his last trips have been settled with positive results. Specifically, there are four wins in a row that have helped the total of 10 wins, 3 draws and 2 losses in 15 trips, with the assault on the Emirates Stadium by 0-2 as the most recent result in the Premier League and the 1-3 to Benfica last Wednesday in the framework of the Champions League.
Draw In The First Round In A Very Close Duel
The equality with which Manchester City and Liverpool arrive at this meeting was also palpable in their face-to-face encounter in the first round, closed with a score of 2-2. Despite no goals in the first half, Sadio Mané and Mohamed Salah put the Reds ahead on two occasions, finding the answer from Phil Foden and Kevin De Bruyne for those draws to seal the match.
If we extend the series of direct duels to the last five, the balance is two wins, for City, one for Liverpool and two draws, highlighting that the Reds’ victory came in November 2019, so there are four matches without beating the Skyblues.
Manchester City Vs Liverpool: Apuestas Y Picks
With regard to the bets, and taking into account concepts such as City’s local condition, Liverpool’s best moment and what was seen in the first round, we opted for a draw as the result for this match, valued at 3.50.
As happened in their previous head-to-head, we bet on a scoreboard in which more than 2.5 goals are recorded, with a quota of 1.65very close to the earnings of 1.66 for every euro bet that we can collect in case both teams score at least one goal.
Pick: Both teams will score
