Not much has worked for Liverpool this season, and they are currently in mid-table. The match against Arsenal last time was perhaps a step forward anyway, even though it was a loss. The team played quite well, and if you only get superstars Mohammed Salah and Virgil van Dijk back in shape, a lot is won. Judging by this week's Champions League match, Salah is perhaps even back in top form. The Egyptian was substituted and scored a hat-trick in the space of 5 minutes. An incredibly impressive performance from the goalscoring technician, and Liverpool fans are keeping their fingers crossed in the hope that he will maintain his newfound form. If we talk about form, it's hard not to mention Erling Braut Haaland. He is so good they are signing a petition that he is a robot and should be dropped from the Premier League? The Norwegian has scored 15 goals in his first 9 league games for Manchester City, and the single-season goalscoring record - 34 by Andy Cole in 1993/94 - is already tied. If Haaland continues at this pace, he will have scored 63 league goals by the end of the season. It is not just Haaland who is performing at his peak for City at the moment. The whole team is flowing like a real Pep machine, running over everything and everyone at the moment. Manchester City have had a hard time with Liverpool recently, and have two straight losses against "The Reds". The two games before that ended in a draw, so it had been a while since a win against the rival. However, Liverpool has not been in such a bad form at any time during these meetings, but now it is City who are - by a margin - stronger. Therefore bet falls on Manchester City will ride on this great form, and win this match.

My prediction;

Outcome: Man City to win

本赛季利物浦并没有取得太大的成功，他们目前处于中游位置。上次对阵阿森纳的比赛也许是向前迈进了一步，尽管输了。球队踢得很好，如果你只让超级球星穆罕默德·萨拉赫和维吉尔·范迪克恢复状态，你就赢了很多。从本周的欧冠比赛来看，萨拉赫或许已经回到了最佳状态。埃及人被换下，并在5分钟内上演帽子戏法。这位进球技术人员的表现令人难以置信，利物浦球迷都在为他祈祷，希望他能保持新状态。如果我们谈论形式，很难不提到埃林·布劳特·哈兰德。他太棒了，以至于他们签署了一份请愿书，说他是一个机器人，应该被踢出英超?挪威人在他为曼城效力的前9场联赛中打进了15球，与1993/94赛季由安迪·科尔创造的34球的单赛季进球纪录已经持平。如果哈兰德继续保持这样的速度，他将在本赛季结束前打进63个联赛进球。现在不仅仅是哈兰德在为曼城表现巅峰。整个球队就像一台真正的活力机器，在每件事和每一个人身上奔跑。曼城最近和利物浦的关系不太好，在对阵“红军”的时候连输两场。在此之前的两场比赛都以平局告终，所以他们已经有一段时间没有战胜对手了。然而，在这些交锋中，利物浦从来没有处于如此糟糕的状态，但现在是曼城，以一定的优势，更强。因此，我们把赌注押在曼城将凭借这种出色的状态，赢得这场比赛上。
