Betting notes

How to bet on Man City vs Liverpool

Four angles to weigh before you place a bet on this fixture.

  1. 01

    The model leans towards goals: over 2.5 at 53% and both teams to score at 56%. Goals markets look sharper than the result here.

  2. 02

    With the draw only 25%, the match-result market is fairly clean. Man City on the Man City -0.5 handicap gives a bigger price if you expect a comfortable win.

  3. 03

    The corners range is 11-14. The favourite tends to win most of them while the underdog sits deep, so team corners can beat the match total.

  4. 04

    Powerplay247 is an exchange: you can back or lay every market on Man City vs Liverpool and trade out in-play, for example after an early goal, instead of waiting for full time.
