Only two days left before Manchester City and Liverpool will face each other on the field for the second time during the current Premier League season. Standing on the opposite sides of one of the strongest rivalries in modern English football, The Citizens will host The Reds at their home base of Etihad Stadium on Sunday, 23 February. Their first meeting took place on 1 December, with Liverpool scoring a 2 – 0 home win.
Man City climbed up the league table and is currently in the top four, which makes it eligible for the Champions League league phase qualification. Liverpool has strongly established itself as the season’s favourite and the main contender for the champion title. It is currently positioned at the top of the league table, with an impressive eight point difference between them and the second in line, Arsenal.
Liverpool’s progress in the season is especially noteworthy, if we remember that this is their first season under the new head coach, Arne Slot, who took over the position in June 2024.
Man City continues playing with their manager of eight years, Pep Guardiola. After Guardiola was signed in 2016, the team won the Premier League title twice, in the 2017/18 and 2018/19 seasons, lost to Liverpool in 2019/20, and have been the ruling champion since the 2020/21 season until last year.
