Manchester City travels to Liverpool for Sunday's Premiership Marquee game. Manchester City coming off a midweek loss in Italy against Napoli in the Champions League. I'm just not a big fan of games like this even though Manchester City is playing well in the EPL. There are some reasons for me taking Liverpool:
1. Manchester City has not won in their last 8 trips to Liverpool
2. Manchester City has only won once in 30 years at Anfield...and twice since 1956
3. Liverpool is unbeaten in their last 7 League matches
4. Liverpool is rested for this game...even though Gerrard won't play
5. Balotelli was sick after the Champions League Match with a fever...but is said to have recovered
With Manchester United drawing with Newcastle today....Man City's lead isn't threatened for the lead of the League...so taking Liverpool at -105 (pk) is the side for me. Worse case if it's a Draw I'll take the push.
