Man City vs Liverpool odds and score prediction
Sky Sports’ Lewis Jones…
For punters eyeing up the first goalscorer market this weekend with Erling Haaland in their sights, it’s worth asking whether the Norwegian’s price truly stacks up at 3/1 with Sky Bet. Spoiler alert: it doesn’t.
The bookies dangle Haaland up at skinny odds and the rest of City’s attacking talent gets priced as if they’re supporting actors. That might make sense when City are bullying lesser sides but Liverpool are not that. And against Virgil van Dijk, Haaland’s aura tends to dim.
The goalscoring machine has malfunctioned when faced with Van Dijk, scoring just two goals in seven appearances for club and country.
When Haaland can’t dominate physically, City often find joy elsewhere and that’s where the value creeps in.
Step forward Phil Foden, who is back to his best and brimming with confidence.
From October onwards in the 23/24 season, Foden was one of the hottest players on the planet, scoring 25 goals in all competitions during that period – a ratio of 0.7 goals per 90. His two goals in midweek pointed towards a return of those numbers which makes his 7/1 with Sky Bet quotes for the first goal look rather generous in a game that looks so difficult to call from an outright perspective.
SCORE PREDICTION: 1-1
Man City vs Liverpool team news
Pep Guardiola said Man City were unlikely to risk Rodri after the Spanish midfielder also missed the win over Borussia Dortmund.
“I think we won’t take a risk,” the City boss said of the midfielder.
“Now it’s the international break afterwards. You have to define the moment that he feels strong, feels fit and can sustain the actions. The actions in the game are so demanding and [so] he can sustain it properly. To make that step.
“We are still in November, the best part of the season is ahead of us and we need him.
Alexander Isak could return to the Liverpool squad having resumed full training following a groin injury that has forced the striker to miss the last four matches.
Goalkeeper Alisson remains out with a hamstring injury but Arne Slot expects the Brazilian to return in Liverpool’s first game after the international break against Nottingham Forest.
Jeremie Frimpong also will not return until after the international break.
