Manchester City this lunchtime return to Premier League action following the international break with what has historically been one of their most difficult tasks.

While rivals Liverpool are not the force of last season, any meeting between the two teams who have dominated the title scene in recent years is a huge affair.

Jurgen Klopp’s side may well be enduring a difficult time of things but beat Pep Guardiola’s men back in October and have stepped up in big games, such as beating Manchester United 7-0.

City have also shown signs of fatigue somewhat, albeit not to the extent of Liverpool. The champions trail Arsenal by eight points after a slightly more inconsistent campaign than in recent years.

Still, they went into the international break having put seven goals past RB Leipzig before beating Burnley 6-0 in the FA Cup. That feels ominous and City certainly are capable of going on lengthy winning runs.

Man City vs Liverpool prediction

Liverpool have stepped up in some of the bigger games this season but City looked to be hitting ominous form before the break. If Haaland plays, Klopp’s leaky defence surely do not have enough to stop him at the Etihad.

Man City to win 2-1.
