‘I have a massive feeling’ – Paul Scholes and Roy Keane disagree on City v Liverpool predictions…

“I have a strong intuition” – Paul Scholes and Roy Keane have differing views on the predictions for the City vs. Liverpool match.

Paul Scholes and Roy Keane have taken opposing stances regarding their predictions for Liverpool’s Premier League clash against Manchester City this Sunday.

If the Reds manage to replicate last season’s success at the Etihad Stadium, they could surpass Pep Guardiola’s team into second place.

Additionally, there is a chance to narrow the gap on Arsenal if the current leaders were to falter against the in-form Sunderland a day earlier.

Following a dismal stretch of six losses in seven matches across all competitions, Arne Slot’s team has made a comeback with well-deserved victories over Aston Villa and Real Madrid. However, their upcoming rivals have triumphed in eight of their last ten games.

What are Scholes and Keane’s predictions for the Man City vs. Liverpool match?

The analysts on Stick to Football shared their forecasts for several Premier League matches this weekend, including the City-Liverpool encounter, with the consensus leaning towards a home victory.

Wearing his Arsenal cap, Ian Wright stated: “A draw would be a favorable outcome, but I believe City will win,” with both Jill Scott and Keane affirming, “I do” in agreement.

In contrast, Gary Neville seemed indecisive as he refrained from choosing a winner, while Scholes – who asserted earlier this week that Liverpool is ‘a superior team’ compared to Real Madrid – expressed with more conviction: “I have a strong intuition. I just believe Liverpool is better. 2-1.”

Liverpool heads to the Etihad with renewed self-assurance.

Just a week ago, the match at the Etihad would have seemed intimidating for the Reds, but two outstanding results in the last six days have given them a much-needed boost of confidence ahead of what is always one of the most highly anticipated matches in the Premier League schedule.

If Slot’s team can replicate last season’s outcome, it would signify that they have truly turned a corner after a difficult October, but they will require their entire squad – particularly the defense – to elevate their performance even further on Sunday.

You may have noticed that Man City has a striker named Erling Haaland, who has been performing well lately – his goal against Borussia Dortmund on Wednesday marked his 27th for both club and country since the beginning of August.

The 25-year-old has only gone without scoring in two matches this season, and in both instances, Guardiola’s team lost (and did not score) (Transfermarkt).

Containing his threat will be crucial for Liverpool if they hope to secure a positive result on Sunday, but after successfully neutralizing the equally dangerous Kylian Mbappe midweek, they will not shy away from the challenge of facing the ponytailed Norwegian.

The Reds must perform at their highest level to achieve victory this weekend, but their revitalized performances over the past week should instill them with genuine confidence as they head to Manchester in pursuit of another three points.
