When a team consistently performs well, the team's self-confidence increases, which makes them feel that all teams are equal. Liverpool's confidence may have been boosted after their big win over Real Madrid in the Champions League and they may be more optimistic about their match against Manchester City. Whether Manchester City will attack against Liverpool or resist Liverpool's attack is a big challenge for them now. When a certain player of a team performs well, it is easy for the opposite team to plan on him, but every player in Liverpool is performing well in every position, so Manchester City has no chance to target any player except any player.
I think Manchester City will not do very well against Liverpool and Liverpool will perform well collectively and beat Manchester City in the next match.
This match has been talked about most of the times this season and this is because of the level of performance that Liverpool are now exhibiting far much better than what they use to when we talk of last season and also in the begin of this season. Manchester City have been the favourite for about two to three seasons now but this season is now a torn in the body for them. There inconsistency is been seen and felt by most of the teams, so almost all teams will like to play them now and get their three points before they come back in good form. Liverpool is the best side for this match and their performance is really impressive that you won’t doubt them not winning this match.
All players are doing well and no one can be found wanting of underperforming that Manchester City can leverage on that position. I am going all in for Liverpool in this game, Manchester City don’t stand a chance in this encounter in my opinion and even if they will be back in top gears with their performance, I don’t think they can still prevail in this match, maybe in the upcoming match they can get their luck back. They are doing well in the champions league and premier league and are maintaining the first place in both competitions, so it won’t be easy to throw them away from those positions, Manchester City needs to try harder to make that happe.
