Manchester City – Liverpool : Preview & Prediction
Manchester City and Liverpool never leave each other! After facing each other last week in the Premier League, they meet again in the semi-finals of the F.A Cup to offer us a new anthology show. Qualified for the last four in the Champions League, the objective is simple for both teams: to obtain as many trophies as possible by the end of the season. The Citizens are coming off a rather tense match at Atletico Madrid last Wednesday (0-0) but what we must remember unfortunately is the ankle injury of Kevin De Bruyne who will be absent this weekend. It’s a good thing the Skyblues are used to playing in big games and we hope to see them at their best in order to put a strain on the Scousers’ solid defence, which is able to stand up to the Mancunians. The challenge will be great without the Belgian international but we trust Pep Guardiola to find a new formula that works!
The Reds had a totally different game to their direct rival for the Premier League title. Jurgen Klopp’s side won 3-1 in Lisbon in the first leg, but had a few scares at Anfield as they finished 3-3, with two goals disallowed to Benfica for offside. With the draw at the Etihad Stadium five days ago, Mohamed Salah and his team-mates have shown that they are the only side capable of challenging the league leaders. The fans are obviously counting on the infernal trio of Mané, Jota and Salah, scorers of 65 TCC goals, to make the difference and take an entire city to another national cup final!
Manchester City will be without Kevin De Bruyne, scorer of 14 goals and 8 assists TCC.
Manchester City have achieved 3 clean sheets TCC in their last 5 games.
Manchester City and Liverpool have scored 17 goals in their last 3 meetings.
Liverpool have scored an average of 2.2 goals in their last 5 games.
Liverpool have conceded at least two goals in their last three games.
This is one of the must-watch clashes of the weekend in Europe. Both teams offer spectacular football in every match and you can expect a lot of intensity for 90 minutes or more. We advise you to play both teams score but the more cautious among you can put more than 2.5 goals at 1.60 at Betclic.
