Manchester City (W)
- Manchester City (W) are the clear favorites to win this Super League Women matchup at 1.17, which seems fair considering they are top of the table with 49 points from 20 games, 32 more than 10th-placed Liverpool (W) who have taken just 17 from their 20 games.
- City also like to play wide, but Andrée Jeglertz’s tactical blueprint is more process-driven and possession-based, with high pressing and high-possession attacks with a central striker.
- City haven’t lost at home in the league this season.
Liverpool (W)
- But the Reds have been in decent form of late, winning 3, drawing 1 and losing 1 of their last 5 games, and they could trouble Andrée Jeglertz’s Citizens at the Etihad on Sunday.
- Liverpool have turned in a number of strong performances, most recently edging Everton (W) 3-2 away and advancing in the FA Cup, but they fell 1-0 at home to West Ham United (W) last time out.
- They have been unbeaten in their last 3 away games in all competitions (W2, D1).
- Liverpool (W) are a different animal, and Taylor has moulded a pragmatic yet flexible system that can adapt between a 4-1-4-1 and a 4-2-3-1 formation depending on the game state.
- They are as comfortable playing possession football as they are surging forward in direct play when they get the chance to, and they have made themselves tough to crack on the counter-attack.
- The Liverpool (W) boss is also more than happy to mix it up with a variety of pressing styles, depending on the opponent, and his team have been excellent at creating second-ball opportunities from wide areas and from long balls into the box.
Head-to-Head
Manchester City (W) have won their last 3 head-to-head clashes against Liverpool (W) in all competitions.
Key Players
- Jeglertz’s team will get at Liverpool (W) and Shaw will get her chances to add to her tally of 19 Super League Women goals in 20 games this season.
- Beata Olsson tops the Liverpool (W) scoring charts this term with 6 goals in 14 league games, and Ceri Holland has scored 3 of their last 4 goals in their past 5 games, so she looks a good bet to find the net at any time on Sunday.
Betting Insights
- City have scored 37 goals in 10 Super League Women home games and, given Liverpool (W) have conceded 18 goals in 10 Super League Women 2025/2026 away games (average 1.8), we’re expecting a lot of goals in this one.
- Over 2.5 goals looks a solid bet at 1.4.
Prediction
And with City winning the last three head-to-heads against Liverpool (W), a home victory looks likely .
