Manchester City vs Liverpool Picks
Manchester City are on a strong wave after their League Cup win over Arsenal. For Liverpool, they need to pick themselves up after losing at Brighton & Hove Albion, a loss that mean’s their Champions League dream is further away.
With that in mind, I’m taking City to win this game, but it will be a lot closer than most expect.
Other markets include Erling Haaland to score, Dominic Szoboszlai to take two or more shots from outside the box and Jeremy Doku to have two or more successful dribbles.
