Liverpool 5/2 to draw against Manchester City this afternoon

Competition: Premier League
Market: Liverpool to draw against Manchester City
Odds: 5/2 @ 888 Sport

Liverpool host Premier League holders Manchester City at Anfield this afternoon, with the Reds desperate to push for a Champions League place. They started the season very slowly, but have since amended their form to threaten the sides in and around the top-four spots in the table.

A win against City would see them really stake a claim for Europe, but Brendan Rodgers’ side have a difficult task. Liverpool have been strong at home, but they are facing a Manchester City side full of firepower. The Sky Blues are five points adrift of Premier League leaders Chelsea, so they need a result on a ground they came unstuck last season.

City are in good form of late, with back-to-back league wins seeing their title chances back on track. But Liverpool are enjoying a 10-game unbeaten run, winning seven and drawing two of their nine outings.

888 Sport are giving odds of 5/2 for Liverpool to play out a draw against Manchester City, with the Reds having drawn three of their last six home games in the league, while City have played out two stalemates in their previous three away outings.
