Lineups & Preview – Battle of Best Attacks – City vs Liverpool

Suarez Third Goal vs CardiffManchester City will collide league leaders Liverpool in the most anticipated fixture of boxing day at the Etihad Stadium.
Liverpool are in blistering form at the moment having won four back to back league games scoring 17 goals and conceding only 3.
On the other hand, Manchester City have gained 10 points from their last 4 scoring 14 goals and conceding 8 goals.
This will be the ultimate battle of the best attacks in the league as City lead the charts with 51 goals and Liverpool have netted 42 goals.
Both teams are defensively not that strong and have not shown consistency, however at the Etihad Stadium, City have not really been concerned about conceding at home because they have been outscoring opponents with ease.
In their last league game at home, City conceded 3 against Arsenal but netted 6 to rip them apart. Besides that, 6-0 thrashing of Spurs and 4-1 humiliation of neighbors Manchester United shows why they should be considered favorites for tomorrow’s game.
Liverpool have been outstanding at home as well. Away from home, they have won only three league games this season but their last result will surely give them massive confidence as they ripped Tottenham apart at White Hart Lane 5-0.
Reds will be glad that the opponents will be without their main talisman Aguero who is injured and their own Luis Suarez is firing on all cylinders becoming the first player to net 10 goals in a calendar month (2 games left).
The league table never lies, Liverpool deserve to be on top and cannot be taken lightly. If Suarez and co are flowing again, City may as well lose the first home league game this season but that is easier said than done.
Here are the predicted lineups.
