Manchester City vs Liverpool Head-to-Head

FC Liverpool managed to accumulate 86 in 31 matches and they have scored 70 goals thus far. The team also conceded the least amount of goals. 21 goals in 31 games prove that they have the strongest defense of all Premier League teams.

Liverpool lost just once this season and only two of their matches ended in a draw. The team scored eight more victories than the second-placed man City which further proves their dominance. After Liverpool defeated Crystal Palace 4-0 last Wednesday and Man City lost on the road against Chelsea, they are now 23 points ahead of them in the Premier League table.

Man City is still a really strong team, but they clearly disappointed when it mattered most this season. They have lost eight times in 31 games which obviously made defending the title this season impossible. The team lost some of its key matches against Man Utd at home, against Tottenham on the road and against FC Liverpool. They have piled up six of their eight losses this season on the road which was one of the weakest points of the team this season.

Liverpool beat Man City 3-1 at home the last time the teams have faced each other. The champions totally dominated Pep Guardiola’s team and scored three unanswered goals. Bernardo Silva scored City’s only goal of the match which came way too late though.

Overall, Man City won just one of the past five matches against Liverpool. However, they are playing against the freshly-crowned champions at home this time. Liverpool might be still a little bit tired of celebrating its historic title, which might enable City to pull off a better performance on Thursday.

Manchester City vs Liverpool Betting Tips

Due to Liverpool’s recent achievement, bookmakers are clearly listing them as the underdogs going into the match against Man City. Liverpool has pretty much nothing to play for at this point. They can not go unbeaten this season after losing for the first time in the season in February against Watford.

Man City on the other hand is currently nine points ahead of Chelsea London in the Premier League table. There is certainly something on the line for them in the upcoming games. City definitely has to play in the Champions League next season, but it is highly unlikely that they are going to fall short off a Champions League spot.

The two best Premier League teams go head-to-head in this game but there is pretty much nothing on the line for the road team. It is extremely difficult to predict the winner of the match. Even though odds of 12/11 at Bet365 for Man City to beat Liverpool may seem quite interesting, I am more interested in betting on the total amount of goals to be scored in this match.

Therefore I am going to bet on over 2.5 goals to be scored at odds of 3/5 at Betfair. Both teams have fantastic strikers and midfielders and due to the current situation, we might see two teams that want to prove that they are ahead of the competition.

Brighton and Hove Albion vs Manchester United Head-to-Head

Man Utd have been on a really decent run lately. The team won four of its past five matches and the last time the team has lost was on January 22nd against FC Burnley. Manchester kept a clean sheet in four of their five matches and they have conceded a total of 31 goals in 31 games so far.

While United’s home record is the third-best in the league, their win-loss record on the road is fairly lackluster. United won nine of their 16 home matches and lost only twice at home. However, they have been performing pretty poorly while not playing at home. They won only four of their 15 matches, drew five times, and lost six games in total. They have scored fewer goals on the road than they conceded which is obviously not a good sign either.

Brighton is obviously not one of the strongest teams in the Premier League, but they have surprisingly beaten Arsenal at home and did not lose against Leicester City on the road. The team lost just one of its past five matches and they are currently 15th in the Premier League.

The team has won only five of its 15 home matches this season, but they played twice against Manchester United at home in the past and they have won both games in 2018. Even though Man Utd won the past two games against Brighton at home they will certainly have a more difficult time on the road, although the absence of Brighton supporters might play into their hands.

Brighton and Hove Albion vs Manchester United Betting Tips

Even though Man Utd has not been playing a decent season on the road, they are obviously still favored in this match to win. The team is currently 3/4 to win with Bet365 and Brighton are huge underdogs at home at 15/4.

However, it is still extremely obvious, that Man Utd has been struggling on the road to create goal-scoring opportunities. The team has scored just 16 goals on the road in 15 games which is obviously not enough to come up with a winning road record. Even though 19 conceded goals are not amazing either, it is their offense that has been more crucial in this case.

Brighton is certainly not a high-caliber opponent, but United definitely has to win this match to stay in the race for the Champions League spots. They are two points behind Chelsea in the standing and they have played one game more than them. Theor opponents though are fighting to stay in the league which might make scoring goals on the road even more difficult.

Instead of betting on the match-winner, I am therefore more interested in taking a closer look at the goal scoring betting markets, instead. Under 2.5 in this game is currently 4/5 @ Bet365 and seems like the most interesting option for this game. Both teams will most likely be starting cautiously into this game and I don’t expect United to blow out the hosts.

Leicester City Statistics & Facts

Leicester remain in the second place of the Premier League standings. Even though they have lost against Man City on the road, they are still ahead of Manchester City in the table. It was Leicester’s first Premier League defeat in their past 10 matches.

The “Foxes” are an extremely resilient team this season. They have conceded just 14 goals, that’s exactly as much as Liverpool. However, Leicester have played one more game this season. Although they are not allowing many goals, you also have to compliment them on their offense, too. Leicester scored in each of their past 16 matches which is outstanding.

Liverpool Statistics & Facts

Klopp’s team was crowned world champions last week and they are looking to extend their superb Premier League streak. Liverpool went unbeaten this season, winning 16 of 17 matches. Liverpool’s most recent Premier League match was a 2-0 home victory against Watford.

The team scored the first goal in their past six league matches and kept a clean sheet four times in their past six competitive games. Their win-record this season is truly impressive, the only reason for criticism might be their most recent performance on defense. Even though they won the FIFA Club World Cup, they have failed to keep a clean sheet in their past seven matches on the road.

Leicester vs Liverpool Head-to-Head

Liverpool have been playing pretty well against Leicester on the road thus far. Jürgen Klopp’s team won three straight games at King Power Stadium. However, Leicester won two out of the last five games against Liverpool at home.

Overall, Liverpool have 39 victories and 21 draws, while the Foxes have 33 victories. Therefore it is safe to say that even though Liverpool is currently absolutely dominating the league, you could expect a fairly even match on Saturday, judging by the historic data.

Leicester City vs Liverpool Betting Tips

Leicester are outsiders at home at odds of 12/5. Liverpool are favored by the bookies to win this road game at 12/11. Even though both teams have been extremely solid on defense, we expect at least a couple of goals in this game. There have been over 2.5 goals in four of the last five meetings and both teams proved during the season that they are willing to take risks in big games.

Both teams to score is backed at 4/7 with Bet365, however betting on more than 2.5 goals at 7/10 at William Hill also seems like a reasonable bet on Thursday.

Predicted Result: Leicester 2-2 Liverpool
