Saturday’s Premier League action concludes at the Etihad Stadium where Manchester City face Liverpool.

Manuel Pellegrini’s side go into the weekend on top of the Premier League but could be as low as fourth place by the time this match kicks off with Arsenal, Manchester United and Leicester City all hot on their heels and all playing earlier in the day.

Top scorer Sergio Aguero is set to return afters six weeks out with a hamstring injury with Fabian Delph and Pablo Zabaletta also pushing for recalls while David Silva will not be risked and misses out along with Wilfried Bony, Samir Nasri and captain Vincent Kompany.

Aguero is favourite to get the first goal of the game at 4.5 (7/2) with Bet Victor, with Kevin de Bruyne a 7.0 (6/1) chance with the same firm.

Raheem Sterling, who moved to City from Liverpool for just shy of £50m in the summer can be backed at 3.3 (23/10) with Stan James.

The home win is available at 1.7 (7/10) with Betfred, who price the draw at 4.2 (16/5) while the visitors are as highly priced as the 5.75 (19/4) on offer from Bet Victor.

The Reds lost for the first time under Jurgen Klopp last time out with Crystal Palace securing a 2-1 win at Anfield almost two weeks ago, a result that left them in tenth place – seven points behind the top four.

Dejan Lovren is expected to come in at centre-back in place of the injured Mamadou Sakho while Jordan Ibe and James Milner are both available despite missing international duty.

Daniel Sturridge could play some part for the first time under Klopp after missing the past six weeks with a knee injury.

Christian Benteke can be backed at 9.0 (8/1) to open the scoring with Paddy Power, with Philippe Coutinho a 15.0 (14/1) chance with Stan James.

Both of last season’s meetings between the sides ended in victory for the hosts, with both teams scoring in both games.

With that in mind you may be tempted to back a home win not to nil at the price of 3.3 (23/10) which is on offer from a variety of firms.
