Irish pundit and Manchester United legend, Roy Keane, has backed Manchester City to beat English Premier League (EPL) champions, Liverpool, when they meet in a league fixture this weekend.
He made the prediction while featuring on the latest edition of the ‘Stick to Football’ podcast.
Man City will host Liverpool in a crucial Premier League encounter slated for the Etihad Stadium on Sunday evening.
Both teams head into the game after securing victories in their last Champions League fixtures against Real Madrid and Borussia Dortmund, respectively, in mid-week.

While the Reds edged past the La Liga giants 1-0, the Citizens convincingly outclassed their Bundesliga opponent 4-1.
Speaking ahead of Sunday’s League encounter between the two EPL giants, Keane said that a draw would be a good result for the contest.
He, however, added that Pep Guardiola’s side would ultimately get the three points at stake.
“It would be a good result to draw, but I think City will beat Liverpool,” Keane said.
Man City and Liverpool currently sit in second and third positions on the Premier League table.
