Man City vs Liverpool score prediction
There's plenty of doubt surrounding this fixture given City's potential absences. However, overcoming the Cityzens at the Etihad is no mean feat. No side has beaten City on their home turf in the past year.
However, the hosts manifested their vulnerabilities at Stamford Bridge before the break and are likely to surrender chances to the mightily efficient Mohamed Salah. The visitors, though, will also cede openings to Guardiola's side and have been fortunate to concede just seven open-play goals this season (xGA is 10.75).
This could be a topsy-turvy bout with goals at both ends, but you can't bet against City at the Etihad.
Prediction: Man City 2-1 Liverpool
