Manchester City vs Liverpool Preview

Manchester City vs Liverpool

Competition – Barclays Premier League

Date: 2nd July 2020

Kick-off time – 20:15 GMT

Liverpool will get their first guard of honour when they visit the Etihad for this game against Manchester City after they won the Premier League before kicking a ball.

Pep Guardiola’s side has had to deal with Liverpool chasing them down for the league title for the last three seasons and Jurgen Klopp’s side has finally earned it.

This could create a period of dominance between both sides now but Manchester City will still want to beat Liverpool in this game to stop them from breaking their points record of 100 points.

Liverpool have been the best team in the league this season and the points margin between both sides shows how good the Reds have been however City remain a solid team and they can get the win in this game.

Manchester City suffered a setback in their bid to delay Liverpool’s triumph when they were beaten 2-1 by Chelsea last time out.

The Cityzens have struggled against top sides this season as they were also beaten by Manchester United on their last visit to Old Trafford.

Liverpool still want to break more records and the Reds will hope that they can build on their 4-0 win over Crystal Palace last time with a win in this game.

Liverpool hasn’t won on any of their last three Premier League visits to this ground and Manchester City has lost just one of their last five home games in all competitions.
