Former Premier League star and football pundit, Shaun Wright-Phillips, has made his prediction for the highly anticipated match between Manchester City and Liverpool this weekend. The two teams will face off at the Etihad Stadium on Sunday, November 8th, in a game that could have significant implications for the rest of the Premier League season.
Wright-Phillips believes that the game will be an exciting one for both Manchester City and Liverpool, but he refrained from providing a scoreline for the match. Speaking to Sport Review, he said, “In comparison to their starts of the last three years, it’s been a very positive start. The game on the weekend is a tricky one. I think Liverpool are starting to find their feet again in a lot of areas, especially with the front three linking up well regardless of what partnership Jurgen Klopp plays up there.”

Wright-Phillips went on to say, “I think it will be an interesting game. Liverpool won’t play the way Chelsea played, so I think Man City will have a bit more control of the ball than during the Chelsea game. But I think it is set up to be a really good game.”
