Betting notes

How to bet on Liverpool vs Man City

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

  1. 01

    With the draw only 26%, the match-result market is fairly clean. Liverpool on the Liverpool -0.5 handicap gives a bigger price if you expect a comfortable win.

  2. 02

    Wait for the confirmed line-ups, usually out an hour before kick-off. A missing striker or first-choice keeper can move the goals lines more than the 1X2 price.

  3. 03

    The model leans towards a tight game: under 3.5 goals at 74%. If the first 30 minutes stay goalless, in-play unders usually get even shorter.

  4. 04

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