Match Preview
Man City and Liverpool will meet in the match that English football fans have been waiting for on Saturday morning, 1 April 2023. The two teams have a long history of rivalry and are looking for each other to win to improve their position in the standings.
Manchester City are currently in second place and eight points clear of leaders Arsenal, but still have a game in hand. Liverpool are in sixth place on the same points as Brighton and Brentford, and must fight to get into the Champions League zone.
The two teams have met three times this season in various competitions. Liverpool won twice, namely in the Community Shield with a score of 3-1 and in the league with a score of 1-0. Manchester City won once, namely in the Carabao Cup with a score of 3-2. The last clash between the two teams took place in December last year and ended in drama. Liverpool had the lead, but Man City turned things around. The decisive goal for Manchester City was scored by Nathan Aké.
This match will be a test for both teams after the international break. Manchester City should be worried about Erling Haaland, who has a groin injury and missed Norway’s two matches in the EURO 2024 qualifiers.
The Norwegian bomber has also not been seen following training with his team. Haaland is the league’s top scorer with 28 goals and is badly needed by Manchester City to break Liverpool’s goal. Apart from Haaland, Manchester City also cannot play the injured Phil Foden.
Hence, Julian Alvarez can become a key player for Pep Guardiola on the front lines. The talented young player who only joined Manchester City in January from River Plate for a transfer fee of around 30 million euros, plays as a striker and can play either on the wing or behind the main striker. This 21-year-old player is Lionel Messi’s partner who won the 2022 World Cup together in Qatar.
Liverpool also has its own injury problems. They had to lose Calvin Ramsay and Stefan Bajcetic who are still recovering. Apart from that, several of their players are also in doubt, such as Kostas Tsimikas, Darwin Nunez, Joe Gomez, Thiago Alcantara and Luis Diaz.
The Reds are also looking for consistency after losing back to back to Real Madrid in the Champions League and Bournemouth in the league. The defeat was in stark contrast to their crushing win over Manchester United with a score of 7-0 earlier.
Jurgen Klopp, Liverpool coach, emphasized that his team will not give up in the struggle to finish in the top four and qualify for the Champions League next season. “We know that we have to win as many games as possible to achieve our objective. We will not give up until the end of the season. We will give everything in every game and see what we can achieve,” said Klopp. (Source: Sports Mole)
