Liverpool vs Manchester City: Predictions, how to watch live streaming, kick off time

Liverpool are playing Manchester City in this week's biggest EPL game on Sunday. The Super Bowl 2026 day soccer game will be played at Anfield. While Liverpool are eyeing the top four spot, Manchester City will hope to chase table toppers Arsenal.

Manchester City versus Liverpool EPL game is scheduled to kick off at 11.30 am (ET). The football game will be live streamed on Fubo in the U.S.

Liverpool are likely to win the game against Manchester City on Sunday, February 8.

Manchester City

Manchester City will try to keep their Premier League title hopes alive when they visit a resurgent Liverpool ‍in the late afternoon kickoff on Sunday at Anfield. Pep Guardiola's City squad (14-5-5, 47 points) enter the weekend in second place, six ⁠points behind an Arsenal side that could add to their lead when they host Sunderland on Saturday.

And the Cityzens be looking to snap a three-match winless league run away from home, with their last league road win coming in late ‌December. Most recently, City ‌gave back a two-goal advantage in a 2-2 draw at Tottenham Hotspur. Before that came a 2-0 loss in the Manchester Derby and ‌a scoreless draw at Sunderland.

Manchester City's form has been much better at home, where they most recently thumped Newcastle United 3-1 on Wednesday in the second leg of their comfortable Carabao Cup semifinal aggregate victory. But no matter the venue, Guardiola admits his players haven't been consistently in the form he would like.

Guardiola suggested ‍Erling Haaland -- who again leads the Premier League in scoring with 20 ‌goals so far -- will be available after a minor injury limited him to an appearance off the bench against Newcastle. However, it's unclear if the Norwegian star will start the match.

Liverpool

Sixth-place Liverpool (11-7-6, 39 points) likely are beyond contending to repeat as league champions, but they are now within two points of the UEFA Champions League places after a run of only one loss in 12 league matches (5-1-6).

The Reds have had a full week to prepare for City following one of their most decisive ‍league performances of the season, a 4-1 thrashing of visiting Newcastle United last Saturday.

Hugo Ekitike registered a brace to bring his total to 10 goals in his ‍first Premier League season. ⁠And Liverpool continued showing the ⁠decisive finishing form they displayed in a 6-0 Champions League win over Qarabag on January 28 that helped secure a third-place finish in that competition's league phase.
