​​ MANCHESTER CITY VS LIVERPOOL

At present, City sit just a point ahead of the Reds at the top of table – and so close is the race between the two rival sides that a win for either would be a massive step towards lifting the trophy at the end of May.

City narrowly lead with 338 points from 144 games, while Liverpool have 337. If the Reds edge ahead in this regard when they meet at Etihad Stadium on Sunday, it could be decisive in the title race.
Guardiola’s men have averaged an astounding 67.7% possession per match in the Premier League since 2017/18 – a statistic 5% greater than any other side.Liverpool once again rank second in both categories, averaging 62.3% of the ball across their 182 league games, while they have also completed 95,620 passes - 411 more than their nearest rivals, Chelsea.

So with the teams seemingly so equally matched, who is most likely to win the title, what has been the difference between them and what exactly is it that might give one side the edge this year?
