188BET: Liverpool v Man City odds
Check out the latest betting odds ahead of Liverpool against Manchester City in the Barclays Premier League.
With both Manchester City and Chelsea winning on Saturday, the pressure was really on Liverpool by the time they played West Ham United on Sunday afternoon.
But Brendan Rodgers' team once again rose to the challenge and claimed another crucial victory in their pursuit of success this season.
The 2-1 win at Upton Park also delivered a nice profit from our recommended bets. We backed draw/away in the HT/FT market at 4.80 and Steven Gerrard's winning penalty, in the second half, proved to be decisive for both the Reds and the bet.
This weekend, fans and punters alike are treated to the biggest game of the season, in what could turn out to be a title deciding match.
City visit Anfield on Sunday and whoever wins the match, will have all the momentum and a huge psychological advantage over their rivals, as the season reaches its climax, over the next few weeks.
Liverpool have claimed just one point from their away games against the other teams in the top five. However, their home form has been the main factor in propelling them to the top of the table. Big wins at Anfield, against Arsenal, Everton and Tottenham Hotspur will no doubt give them confidence when facing City this weekend.
City's away performances earlier in the season were a concern for manager, Manuel Pellegirini. But they're now unbeaten away from home since November 10 and this run includes wins at Spurs, Manchester United and Arsenal.
When these two teams have met in the past, there has typically been plenty of goals. Six of the last seven games in the Premier League have seen three or more scored between the two sides. However, Liverpool FC have only won once in those seven games.
The first bet we'll recommend this weekend is to back Total Goals, 2-3 at 2.13. Although, these two teams are capable of scoring goals for fun, the pressure during this game will be intense. This could curb their usual attacking instincts a little and if the game is level at 1-1, deep into the second half, both teams could be tempted to hold onto the point they've got, rather than going for the win and risk defeat.
The second bet is to back Time Of First Goal, 27th minute onwards at 1.92. Liverpool have scored plenty of early goals.
