Manchester City Vs Liverpool: Prediction
Manchester City are a force to be reckoned with, especially in their backyard. However, considering Erling Haaland, John Stones, Mateo Kovacic, and Ederson are all major doubts for the game, it is difficult to declare them favorites against an in-form Liverpool.
The Anfield outfit, too, have a couple of injury concerns in Ibrahima Konate and Ryan Gravenberch, but the pair are expected to recover in time for Saturday. Keeping all factors in mind, we are predicting a 1-1 draw at the Etihad on Matchday 13.
