It’s that point within the season when Manchester Metropolis take the journey alongside the M62 for his or her annual defeat to Liverpool. The Blues are 9 factors behind Arsenal on the high of the desk and want the factors to maintain their fading title hopes alive.
While not mathematically out of the title race, defending champions Liverpool are 17 factors behind the Gunners, so it could possibly be worse. They suffered a stoop within the autumn in the identical type of Metropolis final season, however they’ve now began to recuperate, however face a battle in the event that they wish to safe a Champions League spot for subsequent season.
As all the time, our crew are available to offer us their views and opinions on Sunday’s match. Right here’s what we predict this week and bear in mind, that is the weekend the place we choose up a bonus level if we win at Anfield no matter prediction!
What an enormous match! The Sunday sport will probably be essential for the title hopes and I believe Metropolis get it carried out. 2-1.
Metropolis have been inconsistent at finest since 2026 started and Liverpool will probably be their hardest job but.
I can’t see a win however I actually can’t again Metropolis to lose.
In what means will VAR inexplicably screw Metropolis at Anfield? Time will solely inform.
A dodgy VAR resolution, penalty to Liverpool and a defeat for Metropolis. Isn’t that the best way this fixture usually goes? I can’t bear in mind the final time we went to Anfield and didn’t concede a penalty. Perhaps that’ll occur at present…Anyway, I by no means put Metropolis right down to lose, however this fixture by no means appears something however a defeat.
What occurred towards Newcastle
The Blues made it to the Carabao (is it nonetheless sponsored by them) Cup Last with a 5-1 combination win over Newcastle, 3-1 on the night time, and now face Arsenal at Wembley subsequent month.
Saul picks up further level for the proper objective distinction and Thomas will get two for the best variety of targets scored. Pete and can each went for wins however underestimated the Blues a bit.
