A few months ago it appeared as though Manchester City would win the impressive quadruple under Pep Guardiola. However, things have changed so much that except a miraculous result in this match, the best they can get would be a league and Carabao Cup double. The Cityzens were overwhelmed by Liverpool in the first leg of this match and the Reds raced to a 3-0 lead before 4o minutes.
At the weekend, Pep Guardiola’s men suffered another defeat against Manchester United, this time at home.They raced to a 2-0 but a defensive collapse saw them lose the game 3-2 to the Red Devils. Liverpool meanwhile drew at Everton after a much-changed side struggled to break down the Toffees but they still managed to remain unbeaten against the Blues, 17 games gone now.
Liverpool have scored at least 2 goals in 11 of their last 14 away games in all competitions and that would worry Pep Guardiola as he knows a Liverpool away goal would require them to score at least 5 goals. The Reds have not lost any game by more than 1 goal since October last year, and they have won seven of their last ten games, losing just once and scoring 24 goals in that time.
