Don Hutchison has now given his score prediction for Liverpool’s massive Premier League away trip to Manchester City this Saturday.
The Reds travel to the Etihad Stadium for their biggest game of the season so far, with Liverpool just one point off City in the league standings heading into this weekend’s fixture.
And ESPN’s Hutchison has now given his prediction for the Premier League headliner, with the former Liverpool midfielder tipping the Reds to come away with a 1-1 draw.
The pundit said: “Obviously I’m going to be Liverpool biased. Liverpool tend to struggle at 12:30’s away from home, but I’m going to go with a 1-1 draw.”
With Liverpool not winning at the Etihad in the Premier League since 2015, a result on Saturday could be massive for Jurgen Klopp in his quest to bring the English title back to Anfield.
And whilst a draw wouldn’t be a bad result, sharing the points will open the door for the likes of Arsenal and Tottenham to claw their way back into the title race, something neither Liverpool or City will want.
Liverpool need to go all-out to beat Manchester City on Saturday
A win this weekend could be seismic for Liverpool in the Premier League title race, with the Reds in need of a real statement performance this season.
Injuries to Pep Guardiola’s side mean that there’s a real chance of Liverpool getting a result in Manchester this Saturday, with City also yet to hit their maximum potential this campaign.
Moreover, with Liverpool having players like Darwin Nunez and Dominik Szoboszlai in top form after the international break, the Reds have the right names in the right mood for this clash.
It won’t be easy, but Liverpool have all the tools needed to get a historic result against City at the Etihad, with Klopp likely having a game plan in the works that could help the Anfield side to a win.
