Manchester City head to Anfield this Sunday for their annual coach trashing, and game of football. The blues have been in excellent Premier League form in recent weeks, but this fixture can bring many surprises.

Manchester City come off the back of an underwhelming performance in Copenhagen; a disallowed goal, a missed penalty and a man sent off within 30 minutes. Nevertheless, the boys in blue showed their resilience and managed to maintain a clean sheet.

Liverpool, despite poor Premier League form returned from Glasgow after panning Rangers 1-7. This will no doubt give them a boost of confidence regardless of their ongoing injury concerns.

This is likely to be a game of goals galore and dodgy referring/VAR decisions, as we have come to accept over recent years.

Pep is sure to start our strongest XI?
