2. No Silva could be the deal clincher
Manchester City have somehow dealt with the absence of David Silva but they can only go that long without his creative genius. The fact that the Spaniard and Sergio Aguero could be out against Liverpool will come as great news for the Reds.
Manchester City aren’t as effective with Kevin de Bruyne or Raheem Sterling in the team, sure they have flashes of brilliance but they cannot seem to do it on a regular basis. Vincent Kompany also missing out would be another positive for Liverpool but can the Reds actually take advantage of this situation?
