Former Manchester United captain Roy Keane has shared his prediction ahead of this weekend’s Premier League showdown between Manchester City and Liverpool. The two top sides will clash at the Etihad Stadium on Sunday evening in what is expected to be one of the biggest fixtures of the season. With both teams coming off strong Champions League wins, all eyes will be on this heavyweight encounter.

Manchester City and Liverpool remain among the Premier League title contenders, sitting in second and third place on the league table. Pep Guardiola’s men are pushing to close the gap at the top, while Jurgen Klopp’s side will be fighting to keep their title hopes alive. Fans are expecting a fast-paced, high-intensity game between two teams known for their attacking style.

While speaking on the Stick to Football podcast, Keane admitted that a draw would be a fair result considering the quality both clubs possess. However, the former midfielder believes Manchester City will edge the Reds at home. According to him, City have the squad, form, and home advantage needed to secure the win on Sunday.

“It would be a good result to draw, but I think City will beat Liverpool,” Keane stated confidently. His comments reflect the confidence many football analysts share, as City have been dominant at the Etihad under Guardiola. Liverpool, however, have shown strong form this season and will not go down easily.

With both teams riding high after European victories—City defeating Real Madrid and Liverpool winning against Borussia Dortmund—the stage is set for a thrilling match. Fans worldwide are anticipating goals, drama, and a classic Premier League battle. Whether Keane’s prediction comes true will be known soon at the Etihad.
