Pep Guardiola will really fight hard with the reds,to get a win in this encounter because they won't want Liverpool or Arsenal to top the league table, anything that makes the gunners top that table,it would really be hard for them to be overthrown,and if care is not taken,they might go on to win the league since they missed out on it last season.Meanwhile,nobody is looking at the direction of the reds,no body is seeing that they are a top contenders to the premier league tittle.I know the game between their two is really a tough match,and we all know Joghen Klopp of what he is capable of doing.He knows all the method and tactics he can use on Pep's men,so the reds can come out victorious,and at thesame time,pep will still watch out for his antics,to try and overcome them.
Isn't that the opposite? For me, it is Jurgen Klopp who should be more wary of Manchester City. apart from this match being played at the Etihad, City is not a team that is easy to beat. there are several factors that made City lose to Arsenal, Wolves and Newcastle in the EFL Cup. none other than that, the performance of City players has decreased, especially in defense. Naturally, so far Pep has never played his main squad line-up. n every match, Pep always does something with player rotation and some experiments, IMO. even so, their front line is still sharp.
Honestly, I can't describe what Pep really wants, but the point is that he wants his squad to play well and at the same time is looking for the ideal formula. In one match, City can change its pattern three times depending on the players entered and the team they are opposing. I'm pretty sure that Pep has a plan for his squad, especially if his players are injured.
Talking about The Red, I actually don't underestimate Jurgen Klopp's squad. However, it seems that this season is not the season for Liverpool. although in reality, in football it is unique. Unfortunately, the depth of players they have is not enough to compete fully until the end of the season. we can refer to betting odds, City with @1.69 and Liverpool with @4.50. In fact, several City players have been injured, such as Kovacic, Ake, Ederson, Stones, who may miss the match against the Red. However, the bookies still favor the home team.
Regarding Klopp's tactics, the pattern he is currently implementing has changed slightly. because last season it was not effective and every opponent knew Liverpool's weaknesses. and this season, it's not much different for me. So, to be sure, we are waiting for the meeting between these two teams to be held. and if I have to be honest, I would prefer this match to end in a draw. because as an Arsenal supporter, I want the Gunners to be at the top of the standings.
