Manchester City v Liverpool - The FA Community Shield
Manchester City take on Liverpool this weekend

The Premier League features a massive fixture this weekend as Pep Guardiola's Manchester City lock horns with Jurgen Klopp's Liverpool side in a crucial encounter at Anfield on Sunday.


Liverpool vs Manchester City Preview

Manchester City are currently in second place in the Premier League standings and have been in impressive form this season. The reigning champions were held to a 0-0 stalemate by FC Copenhagen in their previous game and will need to take it up a notch this weekend.

Liverpool, on the other hand, are in 11th place in the league table at the moment and have struggled to meet expectations this season. The Merseyside outfit thrashed Rangers by a 7-1 margin in the UEFA Champions League and will be confident ahead of this fixture.

Liverpool vs Manchester City Prediction

Manchester City have been in excellent form this season and remain one of the favorites to win the Premier League title. Erling Haaland has been in scintillating form so far and will be intent on making his mark this weekend.

Liverpool have been in abysmal form for the most part this season but are capable of pulling off a surprise. But Manchester City are the better team at the moment and should be able to win this game.
