The home side had the better of the play that day but were in the middle of a slightly ropey period with that clash coming in a spell of four league games without a win, a rare occurrence for City under Guardiola.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Read More:\u00a0<\/span><\/strong><a class=\"editor-rtfLink\" href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/2024\/03\/08\/liverpool-vs-manchester-city-preview-battles\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_self\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Will Phil Foden Shine Again? The Key Battles in Liverpool vs Manchester City<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">All of the last three fixtures between the teams have been in Manchester, with City winning the other two 4-1 and 3-2 &#8211; however, the last match at Anfield was won by Liverpool thanks to a 76th-minute goal from Mohamed Salah.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">It&#8217;s a ground that the away side have struggled at, with just one win in 21 years, which came in February 2021 with Guardiola&#8217;s men running out as 4-1 winners. Since Klopp arrived at the Reds, his home record against Sunday&#8217;s opposition reads as played nine, won six, drawn two, and lost one.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Liverpool vs. Manchester City Prediction<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">When these two meet, it is often much safer to back the home side. Each team has just one win at their opponent&#8217;s ground since Klopp and Guardiola have been in office.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">This also presents a rare opportunity for Liverpool in that every other genuine title race they have been in with Manchester City, they have met at Anfield in the first half of the season and had to travel to the Etihad in the second half of the campaign. They will see this as a golden opportunity to create a gap going into the final ten games of the season.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Read More:\u00a0<\/span><\/strong><a class=\"editor-rtfLink\" href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/2024\/03\/06\/erling-haaland-reacts-missing-biggest-chance\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_self\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Erling Haaland Reacts to Missing &#8216;Biggest Chance in the World&#8217; Against Manchester United<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">It would be crazy to write City off, even with their troublesome record at the home of the six-time European Cup winners, and they are still favourites with bookmakers to win this one.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">It&#8217;s a hard one to call, and these games can often end up like chess matches, with both managers putting in special measures to deal with the quality of the opposition. Considering both defences have shown signs of vulnerability of late, expect goals in this one.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Prediction: Liverpool 2-2 Manchester City<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Current Best Odds: Liverpool Vs Manchester City<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Liverpool &#8211; 135\/67<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Draw &#8211; 3\/1<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Manchester City &#8211; 27\/20<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Liverpool welcome Manchester City to Anfield on March 10 as they seek to extend their gap to four points ahead of the Champions.
