S.P.Read Esq: Liverpool v Man City

Our daily columnist and pundit S.P. Read Esq. looks ahead to the Premier League game on Wednesday between LIVERPOOL v MAN CITY and finds the best opportunities available on Star Spreads, the home of sports spread betting.

I wish it could be a Leap Year every day !!!

A great result on 29th February with Brighton hammering Leeds and a mega profit of 4,000 points on the sell of the third match goal. It had been a fairly turbulent month so that at least helped to steady the ship.

I’m not sure I’m quite ready for Man City v Liverpool, part 2, having sat through the Capital One Cup Final on Sunday !!

The saga finally came to end with Man City winning on penalties with some great work from the respective keepers. The City win was fair on balance but both teams were short of their best.

This has become a must win for Man City or, at the very least, a must not lose game given they are now 10 points adrift of Leicester, all be it with two games in hand.

City’s manager Manuel Pellegrini said: “If we are ten points behind the leader the range of error is less. If the maths say you can do it, you must always trust you can do it. I am sure our team will continue growing from now until the end of the season.”

Liverpool’s Mamadou Sakho is a doubt after his head injury on Sunday, but Martin Skrtel is expected to return after a hamstring problem.

Daniel Sturridge could be a doubt after suffering from cramp on Sunday and Lucas is likely to miss out with a muscle problem.

Man City’s goalkeeper Joe Hart is likely to replace Willy Caballero despite his heroics on Sunday.

Midfielder Yaya Toure is doubtful with a foot problem.

I can remember when Leicester played Spurs in quick succession earlier in the season and there were three different results in three games. This looks like one of those games and after a nice win earlier in the week I’m taking some time out on this one and not having a trade tonight.
