Manchester City V LiverpoolManchester City V Liverpool, Get ready to watch Man City vs Liverpool numerous times this month as these two Premier League heavyweights get set to face off three times in the month of January. The last Manchester City v Liverpool encounter actually took place as recently as the end of November, with Liverpool nearing a win but having to settle with a draw at Anfield. The title race has seen its fair share of fluctuations this past week and as it stands, none of the top 6 teams are really out of it just yet.
Man City didn’t exactly end 2011 in the stylish fashion they would have envisioned, but it takes nothing away from the subliminal year that they are coming off of. Only two teams have managed to escape without a loss from the Etihad in 2011, one being Fulham in league play and the other was a draw against Napoli in the Man City’s first CHampions League outing. They will welcome back striker Balotelli today and will hope to get more out of their attacking line after two consecutive games in which they failed to get a goal.
Liverpool were among the big teams suffering from a hangover during the busy holiday schedule, dropping points against Blackburn and Wigan. They nevertheless ended 2011 on a positive note, notching a win against Newcastle with Steven Gerrard joining the fray in the second half and showing signs that he might be getting back to his old self. With Suarez and Gerrard in the mix, Liverpool should be able to test the CIty defense which looked susceptible in their last encounter.

With these two teams also set to feature in Carling Cup action later this month, we will get a chance to see plenty of this Man City v Liverpool fixture but tonight it should be Manchester City who should continue their dominance at home with a win – bet on Man City to win at 5/6 on Bet365.
