Pep Guardiola has been singing the praises of Savinho lately, the Brazilian has been a bright spark in an otherwise disappointing campaign for Manchester City up until this point and his shot record really stands out here. Manchester City have been vulnerable at times to the transition this season but their attacking play has remained pretty consistent, they’re averaging 16.44 shots per game in the Premier League this campaign so should be able to create opportunities against the league leaders here. 

Savinho has had 41 shots across his 20 Premier League appearances this season, 15 of these have been starts taking his average to 2.92 shots per 90 which is an average he should be able to match here when considering his recent form. Savinho has had at least two shots in each of his last five Premier League matches which has included tough assignments against Newcastle and Arsenal showing that the winger can have attempts at goal against the elite sides in the division. Manchester City had eight shots in the initial meeting between these sides at Anfield, a total they should be able to better on home ground here mainly due to the fact that they have key attacking players fit that were absent for the skirmish earlier in the season. 

There is slight value with this selection when placing with Bet365, the same market is priced around 1.5 on other bookmakers making this a nice selection when considering Savinho’s form across the season as a whole and in particular in his last five games.
