With the impressive start of the Premier League season, Man. City could steal the Reds smile and take another win from them.

The citizens have come from four matches unbeaten and according to BBC sports, since the beginning of last season, City won 27 points out of the 33 against the other teams who ceased in the top six. On the other side, Liverpool only managed 14 points from 12 games.

As I said before they could also have De Bruyne back and with him back, they have the opportunity to increase their football to the highest level. In addition, Guardiola has come from many defeats when he faced Klopp; he definitely did his homework to find the German’s weakness to get a win this coming Sunday.

Predictions

Liverpool 2-0 Manchester City

The stats speak for themselves, Guardiola had not won for a long time at Anfield. Liverpool definitely plays better at home. Besides, the loss versus Napoli should make them the hungrier of the two to win, especially against the biggest title challengers.

Keita, Salah and Firmino have shown more chemistry than ever, and the fact Liverpool have never lifted an EPL trophy makes them play with a desire to grab a win against City.
