Liverpool are set to take on Manchester City in a Premier League encounter at Anfield on October 16, 2022. While the Reds head into this fixture on the back of a convincing 7-1 win against Rangers in the UEFA Champions League, City were held to a goalless stalemate by FC Copenhagen.
The two teams have been in contrasting form this season. While Pep Guardiola's troops continue to challenge Arsenal for the number one position, Liverpool are languishing in 10th. Jurgen Klopp's side have won just twice in the league and have not tasted victory in their last three outings. However, Liverpool's midweek performance at Ibrox will instill hope in their fans. Mohamed Salah scored a hat-trick, Roberto Firmino got a brace, and Darwin Nunez also got on the scoresheet.
City have already netted 33 times in just nine games. Their Norwegian talisman Erling Haaland was rested against Copenhagen for the first time this season and will be eager to continue his incredible recent scoring record. He has been shattering records left, right and centre in the Premier League and his goal against Southampton made him the fastest player to reach 15 strikes in the competition's history.

Liverpool have several players on the injury table. Klopp will miss the services of Luis Diaz with a knee injury, as well as Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, Naby Keita, Arthur Melo, Joel Matip and Trent Alexander Arnold.
