Premier League
The 2-0 victory over Real Madrid only confirms Liverpool's fantastic performance this season. 17 wins out of 19 matches in all competitions speak enough for Arne Slot and company, who also have eight consecutive wins at Anfield. Although they conceded two goals in their visit to Southampton, Liverpool continues to have the best defense, having only conceded eight goals in the past 12 rounds.
Manchester City continues to struggleNo one expected what is happening with Manchester City lately. Five consecutive losses and six consecutive winless matches in all competitions. The peak was in the last round after a 0-4 defeat at home to Tottenham. On Tuesday, it seemed like they would remember themselves and lead 3-0 against Feyenoord, but eventually they allowed an equalizer for the final 3-3, confirming their poor form. At least two goals were conceded in each of these last six winless matches.
Prediction: Victory for LiverpoolLogic definitely points to a victory for the hosts. A fantastic performance from the team this season, while Manchester City has fallen into a hole from which they cannot seem to escape. Based on their recent performances, it is hard to see how City can win here.

The big derby in this round of the Premier League is between Liverpool and Manchester City. At the moment, there is no argument in which the team of Manchester City has any chance against Liverpool at Anfield. The Merseysiders play great football, they play organized football and on top of everything, even if the match doesn't go as planned, they can react well and do it confidently. Not to mention, they are in front of their home crowd, and not to mention that besides everything else, this particular match is considered very important for Liverpool's entire season, because they can open a huge gap against Manchester City, drastically reducing City's chances for the title and increasing their own. It is difficult to predict anything other than a win for Liverpool in this match.
It seems to me that this will be a very tense match. I would even go so far as to suggest there will be a red card in this match. Simply because if Manchester City starts losing, they won't be able to control their nerves. You saw for yourself what Pep Guardiola did to himself in the match against Feyenoord. The problem is that Manchester City showed two totally different faces against Feyenoord. Until the 65th minute, they played as they usually do. They returned to their style with confidence and playing in the opponent's field and then suddenly collapsed. Will they be able to resist in this match? There is no way to predict anything other than a victory for Liverpool in this match. There is simply not a single logical argument. If you are a fan of illogical thinking, then you have a very good choice, including over 2.5 goals in the match.
