The champions of Europe will meet the champions of
England on Sunday, where the Reds will be
presented with the opportunity to extend their lead
atop of the Premier League table to nine points.
For the neutral, this is just about the best fixture you
could ask for.
The two most entertaining teams in England go head
to head at Anfield this weekend, in what promises to
be a thrilling clash.
Both sides overturned 1-0 deficits to eventually win
2-1 last weekend, meaning Liverpool remain six points
clear at the top.
Sunday’s game will see various key battles takes
place across the pitch, and the victor of each
individual tussle could have a major bearing on the
eventual outcome.
Dockaysworld selects three that stand out.
Sadio Mane vs Kyle Walker
Recall during the last season run, we discussed how
Mane held the Key to the reds title bid.
The Senegalese International has reignited this act in
2019/20 Season and is now Liverpool main Man.
If Mane’s blistering speed gets the better of most
defenders, though, he will meet his match at the
Etihad in Kyle Walker, tasked with stopping him.
Walker will have to be at his best against Mane,
however, with any lapse in concentration sure to be
punished by Liverpool’s most influential attacker.
It will be an intriguing battle, and one that you would
tip Mane to edge.
Fabinho vs Bernardo Silva
As always in the big games, it will be won or lost in
midfield.
Last season’s draw and win for Man City can be
attributed mainly to Bernardo Silva and Fernandinho
being amazing in there.
This time, Fernandinho will be a centre-back, and with
David Silva ruled out through injury, Bernardo Could
be the man pulling the strings for the away side.
This is where Fabinho would be a massive asset for
Liverpool and must extinguish the threats of the little
city magician.
Virgil Van Dijk Vs Aguero
Sergio Aguero is yet to score at Anfield since his
arrival and on Sunday, He face a huge test once
again.
City Spurs’ star striker has been a huge reason for
their title challenge this season, and in a game of
huge importance, they need him to deliver once
again.
Virgil Van dijk form have been patchy in recent
weeks and Aguero should fancy his chances this time
around.
We except him to find the net on this occasion.
