Manchester City vs Liverpool 16.04.2022

After thrilling football fans to an exciting 2-2 draw last weekend, Man City and Liverpool will renew their rivalry in Saturday’s FA Cup Semi Final. The Citizens head into this tie top of the league and with a UCL Semi Final ticket in the back. This means if all goes well this season, they could land a treble.

Meanwhile, Liverpool go to Wembley after a nervy 3-3 draw against Benfica in the Champions League. While a 6-4 aggregate win was enough to seal their place in the UCL last four, Klopp’s men will need to address some defensive issues that have become evident in the last couple of games. This could be key for the Reds if they intend to get past Man City and protect their potential quadruple this season.

Given the quality they possess, we expect a mouth-watering contest between both sides. We are predicting that at least a goal will be scored in both halves of this match
