1X2 Betting Odds
| Manchester City (1) | X | Liverpool (2) |
| 9/11 | 14/5 | 11/4 |
The 1X2 betting market is one of the simplest and most popular wagers in football betting. You have three choices:
- 1 means a win for Man City
- X means a draw
- 2 means a win for Liverpool
Let’s break down the Manchester City vs Liverpool betting odds for the 1X2 market. The odds are 9/11 for Manchester City, 14/5 for a draw, and 11/4 for Liverpool. This means, if you bet £11 on Man City and they win, you’ll make a £9 profit. Bookmakers also return the stake (betting amount) on successful bets. Similarly, bets on a draw pay £14 for every £5, and correctly betting on Liverpool’s win pays £11 for every £4.
If a bet yields a high return or has “long” odds, it reflects that the bookies think the possibility of this outcome is quite low. On the other hand, bets with low or “short” odds have a high probability of winning. Keep this factor in mind when deciding which team to back in this market. Also, consider their recent form and injuries.
Double Chance Odds
| Manchester City or Draw | City or Liverpool | Draw or Liverpool |
| 4/15 | 3/13 | 6/7 |
The double chance betting market gives bettors a wider safety net. Instead of betting on just one result, you can cover two of the three possible outcomes in Sunday’s match. This increases your chances of winning the bet (though the odds are always short in this market).
The double chance betting options for this fixture are:
- Man City or Draw (1X): Your bet only loses if Liverpool wins.
- Man City or Liverpool (12): This covers both teams to win and removes the option of a draw.
- Draw or Liverpool (X2): This loses if City wins the match.
Double chance bets are useful when both teams appear to be evenly matched or when you want to reduce your risk in a high-stakes game. Currently, Man City and Liverpool are neck-and-neck in the standings. So, this bet could be a safer alternative to 1X2.
Handicap Betting Odds
| Man City (-0.5) | Liverpool (+0.5) |
| 4/5 | 20/21 |
| Man City (+0.75) | Liverpool (-0.75) |
| 1/6 | 7/2 |
| Man City (-2) | Liverpool (+2) |
| 7/2 | 1/6 |
Handicap betting adjusts the odds by giving one team a virtual advantage or disadvantage. For example, the final score is 3-1. After adjusting for a (+/-) 1.5 handicap, the final score will be calculated as 1.5-2.5. This gives an advantage to the underdog team.
Here’s how different handicaps affect the final result:
- Man City -2/ Liverpool +2: Liverpool gets a big advantage with this handicap. Bets on Liverpool win if they win, draw, or lose by three or fewer goals. A four-goal difference will lead to a draw. Bets on Manchester City win in this handicap if they manage to win with a five-goal margin.
- Man City -0.5/ Liverpool +0.5: This is a small handicap where bets on Liverpool win in case of a draw.
- Man City +0.75/ Liverpool -0.75: Manchester City gets a one-goal advantage here. If Liverpool wins with a two-goal difference like 0–2, the score gets adjusted to 0.75–1.25, and bets on City lose.
Consider the Manchester City vs Liverpool odds in this market only if you can predict how close or wide the scoreline will be. You can lower your risk by choosing a wide handicap like +2 or +2.5.
Both Teams to Score (BTTS) Odds
| Yes | No |
| 10/21 | 31/20 |
Both Teams to Score (BTTS) is suited for new bettors. In this market, you don’t have to predict who will win. Instead, you bet on whether both teams will score at least once during the match.
“Yes” bets win if the final score is anything like 1–1, 2–1, 3–2, etc. As long as both Man City and Liverpool score at least once, Yes bets win. It doesn’t matter who wins the match or what the total score is.
On the other hand, the “No” bet wins if either or both teams fail to score. For example, 0–0, 2–0, or 1–0 would all result in a win for “No” bets. If the final score has a zero in it, “No” bets win.
Consider the clean sheets (where the opposition team’s score is zero) when analysing the Manchester City vs Liverpool odds in this market. The higher the clean sheets, the higher the chances that “No” bets may win. Liverpool kept two clean sheets in their last 10 matches, and City kept four. Use this data to minimize your risk.
Goal Total (Over/Under) Odds
| Over 3.5 | Under 3.5 |
| 23/20 | 4/6 |
The Goal Total market, also known as Over/Under betting, looks at the total number of goals scored in the match, regardless of which team scores them. For this fixture, the default betting line is set at Over/ Under 3.5 goals.
- Over 3.5 means you’re betting that the match will have four or more goals. For example, scores like 3–1, 2–2, or 1–3 would all win in this bet.
- Under 3.5 wins if the game ends with three or fewer goals, such as 0–0, 2–0, or 2–1.
Since both teams are strong, Sunday’s game could be tight. In this case, Under 3.5 bets could offer better value. However, both teams have strong attackers like Mo Salah (Liverpool) and Erling Haaland (City), who are known for hitting freely.
To lower your risk, consider their average total over the last 10 games. Liverpool averaged 1.5 and City averaged 2.4. This brings their combined average total to 3.9, which is slightly over the 3.5 betting line. You can lower your risk by choosing the lowest total, like Over 1.5. This bet wins as long as both teams score at least once.

| 0–2 | 25/1 |

Here, you have to predict the exact final score of the match, not just the outcome. This makes it a risky bet as predicting a precise score can be difficult. So, only bet small stakes here.
