Liverpool's recent 2-1 win over Aston Villa has given them renewed confidence, which they will look to carry into this match. The team has won two and lost four of their last six matches, and away from home, they have earned six points from 15 available.

City has been the Premier League's best team in terms of results since April, with 42 points won in 19 games. They have won nine of their 10 matches at the Etihad during this time, losing only one. However, football can be unpredictable, and Liverpool will be looking to cause an upset.

The match will also see Mohamed Salah and Erling Haaland in action, both of whom have the potential to break records. Salah needs a goal or assist to break Wayne Rooney's record for the most Premier League goal involvements at a single club, while Haaland is closing in on Alan Shearer's record for the fastest player to reach a century of goals.

For Pep Guardiola, Sunday's match will be his 1,000th as a manager, and he will be looking to make it a memorable occasion. Liverpool, on the other hand, will be out to spoil the party and claim their first consecutive away wins against City since 1987-1991.

The match promises to be an exciting encounter, with both teams looking to secure a crucial win.
