Liverpool and Manchester City face each other this Sunday at Anfield (3:30 p.m. GMT) in the 6th round of the Premier League. Here are the ten key figures to know ahead of this top-flight clash.

3.1 goals: this is the average number of goals scored per match in the last 15 league meetings between the two teams, since their goalless draw in October 2018. We should therefore expect a high-scoring match this Sunday.

3 goal involvements: Dominik Szoboszlai has been directly involved in three goals in his last three Premier League appearances against Manchester City.

4 matches: Liverpool have drawn their last four consecutive league matches at Anfield. A fifth game without a win would equal the run from March 1993. The Reds have only done worse in February 2003 (7) and March 2021 (8).

5 goals: Erling Haaland (Manchester City) leads the Premier League scoring charts this season, ahead of Alexander Isak (Liverpool), who has scored four goals. The match will also see the league's top scorers go head-to-head.

10 matches: Manchester City are unbeaten in their last ten league away matches, with six wins and four draws.

48.9%: this is the proportion of opposing touches in the opponent's half on which Liverpool apply intense pressure, the best rate in the league this season.

83%: Manchester City have the best success rate for passes made under intense pressure in the Premier League this season, highlighting their ability to play the ball out against the press.

2 away wins in the last 3 meetings: the visiting team have won two of the last three league encounters between the two clubs, as many as in the previous 32 combined.

2 consecutive matches: after scoring in his first four Premier League matches against Liverpool, Erling Haaland failed to find the net before scoring again in both meetings last season.

3 goals at Anfield: Antoine Semenyo scored all three of his league goals against Liverpool at the Reds' ground, a stadium where he has particularly distinguished himself against this opponent.
