25/1 A Yellow Card in Man City v Liverpool!
MAN CITY vs LIVERPOOL BETTING PREVIEW
Manchester City face an uphill battle to reach the semi-finals of the Champions League as they suffered a 3-0 defeat at Anfield Road in last week's first leg match. Since then, the Citizens suffered a further blow, losing a Premier League match 3-2 at home to Manchester UTD on Saturday, a game they led 2-0 at half time. It means that Man City have lost successive matches for the first time under Pep Guardiola and conceded three goals in each game. Anyway, Manchester City have scored three or more goals in over half of their 23 home games so far and have already beaten Liverpool 5-0 earlier this season.
Kevin De Bruyne and Kyle Walker will return to the starting XI after being rested in the Manchester Derby. Sergio Aguero returned from his knee injury at the end of that match and is expected to lead the line, with Leroy Sanè and Raheem Sterling on his flanks. In defense, Fabian Delph and Danilo are in contention to start after Aymeric Laporte failed to impress in the first-leg. Kevin De Bruyne will replace Ilkay Gundogan in midfield, despite the German scored a goal in the derby. David Silva and Fernandinho will retain their starting berth in the middle of the park.
Since the first leg Liverpool drew a league game 0-0 away at Everton and they remain third in the standings, 10 points clear of fifth placed Chelsea. The Reds have won three and lost none of their five away matches in Champions League this year. Jurgen Klopp's men have kept a clean sheet in 6 of their last 7 European matches. Furthermore, only four teams have stopped the Reds scoring away from home so far. Man City need to win by 4 goals should Liverpool find the back of the net at Etihad Stadium.
Adam Lallana and Emre Can are out through injury while Jordan Henderson is suspended. As a result, Jurgen Klopp can only rely upon Georgino Wijnaldum, James Milner and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain in midfield. Mohamed Salah was not risked in the Merseyside derby but the Egyptian is expected to recover in time from a groin injury suffered in last week's first leg. Sadio Manè and Roberto Firmino will complete the front trio, with Dominic Solanke and Danny Ings as backup options. Andrew Robertson and Trent Alexander-Arnold will also return to the starting defensive pack, play at each side of the central pair formed by Dejan Lovren and Virgil Van Dijk. The likes of Joe Gomez and Joel Matip are sidelined while Alberto Moreno is a major doubt.
