Liverpool vs. Man City: Premier League betting odds, prediction, pick

Anfield stages the season’s most anticipated heavyweight collision on Sunday when Liverpool welcomes Manchester City for a contest that could reshape the Premier League landscape. Arne Slot’s resurgent Reds, currently sixth on 39 points from 24 matches, have steadied the ship after a turbulent winter: a 3-2 setback at Bournemouth was followed by statement victories over Qarabag in Europe and Newcastle domestically. The uptick in form has rekindled belief that Liverpool can still muscle into the top-four picture.

Across the touchline, Pep Guardiola’s City arrive in second with 47 points but nine adrift of leaders Arsenal after the Gunners’ latest triumph. The champions have harvested only one league win in their last five outings, a rare wobble that has left their title defence hanging by a thread. Still, silverware remains within reach; City have booked a place in the Carabao Cup final and secured automatic qualification to the Champions League round of 16, evidence that their standards remain sky-high on multiple fronts.

Oddsmakers see Sunday’s showdown as a coin-flip affair, and recent evidence supports the tight pricing. Both camps have shown vulnerability—Liverpool’s early-season inconsistency and City’s winter malaise—yet each squad retains the firepower to punish the slightest lapse. With attacking riches on either side and defensive question marks exposed in recent weeks, the stage is set for a high-scoring stalemate that could leave supporters and bettors alike on the edge of their seats.

Prediction: 2-2 draw.
