After delivering a winning Bet Builder on Saturday, SlipsTips shares a selection ahead of Liverpool’s blockbuster battle with Manchester City in the Premier League on Sunday afternoon.
Liverpool vs Man City (Sunday, 16:00)
A heavyweight Premier League showdown takes centre stage at Anfield on Sunday afternoon, as Liverpool lock horns with Manchester City.
The Reds are riding high under Arne Slot and another victory this weekend would tighten their grip on top spot in the Premier League table.
As for Man City, their crisis deepened when blowing a 3-0 lead to draw 3-3 with Feyenoord in midweek, a bruising setback that also extended the Sky Blues' winless run to six matches across all competitions.
Consequently, Liverpool are firm favourites to bank all three points on Sunday, however I’m happy to highlight an alternative offering in the player fouls market.
Andy Robertson has been priced up at 11/8 on Bet 365 to commit a minimum of one foul during this contest and that looks too big to ignore in a game of this magnitude.
While Robertson may not be an obvious candidate to get himself on the wrong side of the referee, he has been a regular offender in recent weeks.
The Liverpool left-back gave away a penalty last weekend during the Reds’ 3-2 win away at Southampton.
Furthermore, the Scotland skipper was penalised for fouling Lucas Vazquez inside the box during Liverpool’s 2-0 win over Real Madrid in midweek, one of two fouls he committed during that particular game.
It’s also worth noting that Robertson was reprimanded by the match official during Scotland’s final Nations League Group A1 assignment with Poland earlier this month.
Thus, there is plenty of scope for the 30-year-old defender to overstep the mark once or more at Anfield on Sunday.
While Man City are in the midst of a seemingly never-ending rough patch, they remain a force to be reckoned with given their vast array of talent.
On Sunday, Robertson, looks like he could be deployed in direct opposition to Bernardo Silva, a player who has drawn a foul from the opposition in seven of his previous eight outings in this season’s Premier League.
