How to watch Liverpool vs Manchester City live: Stream link, TV channel, team news, prediction

Liverpool host Manchester City at Anfield on Sunday in an epic clash on so many levels. These bitter rivals always put on a show but given Man City’s guilty verdict from an independent commission, and their subsequent appeal , being announced over the international break, the intensity levels have been cranked up even more ahead of this game. Liverpool and City were so close to each other on and off the pitch for most of the time period in question and the home fans at Anfield will remind City's players and fans of that. As for this season, so far Andoni Iraola's new-look Liverpool are unbeaten but haven't really got going, especially in attack. They have a few big injuries to contend with and Iraola's high-pressing style of play is taking time to settle in. But they seem to have found some balance in defense, which was much-needed. It will be intriguing to see how Enzo Maresca and his City players react after the huge news that an independent commission found them guilty of all charges relating to serious breaches of the Premier League's financial regulations. City have appealed as the story rumbles on off the pitch. On it, City have won five from five to start the league season and will try their best to block out all of the noise.

He has plenty of options in attack and if Isak and Gakpo aren't fit, we could see Bradley Barcola start centrally. In defense Ronald Araujo has made right back his own, while Joe Gomez could come in if Jacquet isn't fit to start at center back. Jeremy Frimpong could also start at right back with Araujo slotting over to center back. Manchester City team news Erling Haaland came off with fatigue when playing for Norway over the international break, which is a big worry for City. But all signs point to him being fit to feature at Anfield. Which will be a relief for City because they basically don't have a back-up option up top. Elsewhere, Phil Foden is suspended after his red card at Man United, while both Antoine Semenyo and Nico O'Reilly are struggling with injuries. Maresca has a wealth of attacking options with Cherki, Doku, Ndiaye and Allan all pushing to start and Enzo Fernandez has settled in seamlessly. Liverpool vs Manchester City prediction This is going to be some clash as both teams have looked suspect when defending counter attacks so far this season. That usually adds up to a goalfest and it feels like if Liverpool's top strikers are available, they will prevail. Liverpool 3-2 Manchester City .
