"Liverpool have the attacking quality to score quite a few goals here and I can’t see Burnley being able to match that scoring power at Turf Moor. Liverpool have won all three of their Premier League matches so far, recording victories over Bournemouth, Newcastle and Arsenal. 

Liverpool boasted the best away record of any side in the Premier League last season. They won 11 of their 19 matches and scored an incredible 44 goals - way more than any other side in the division.

Remarkably, they may even be able to eclipse that total on the road from last season with the attacking additions they’ve brought into the squad. The likes of Isak and Wirtz can use this game as an opportunity to kickstart their Liverpool careers."

"It’s difficult for me to pick a winner in this derby with both sides showing inconsistencies in the early stages of the season but I’m pretty confident that we’ll see goals here with the attacking talent that is on show.

The most recent meeting between these sides back in April ended in a 0-0 draw, but in truth neither side really bothered to win that game with both Premier League campaigns long stale. The meetings at the Etihad between these rivals tend to be more exciting compared to when they clash at Old Trafford.

The last four head to head meetings between the sides in the Premier League at the Etihad have seen over 2.5 goals, they’ve also all seen BTTS. If we look slightly further back, over 2.5 goals has landed in seven of the last 10 of the Premier League meetings between the sides at City’s home stadium.

City have seen over 2.5 goals in two of their three Premier League matches so far this season. Manchester United saw five goals against Burnley last time out. Neither backline can be trusted at the moment to put in a stubborn performance which should see goals aplenty in the latest edition of the Manchester derby. "
