[Football- England 'EFL Cup'] 22.12/ 21:00 Manchester City- Liverpool

A real hit in the 1/8 finals of the EFL Cup is ahead of us. The championships ended just four days ago, and we're already in the home cups. As of today, he proposes a City win and a City win and both will score.
As we know well, players are slowly starting to return to the club. So let's take a look at the squad of both teams, how it could look more or less today. The visiting team returned to training: Henderson, Trent, Ali, Fabinho. This is certainly good news for Reds fans, but all four were due to undergo one more training session to see what they looked like physically. Curtis Jones resumed training with the team a week ago, but Luis Díaz, Diogo Jota and Arthur Melo remain unavailable as they recover from injuries.
In the home team, Pep Guardiola has announced that six more players have returned to training after returning from the World Cup. Kevin De Bruyne, İlkay Gündoğan, Nathan Aké, Rodrigo, Aymeric Laporte and Manuel Akanji have all returned to a training session some time ago. In addition, the club is still training Sergio Gómez, Erling Haaland, Riyad Mahrez, and Cole Palmer.
Staff-wise, however, the City team looks much better here. Despite everything, I would wait for the official lineups anyway because there should be no shortage of rotation.
Go back to the game itself, City haven't won against Liverpool in five games. This series must finally be broken and I hope it will be today. Ahead of us is a clash of giants who still have something to prove in the domestic backyard as well as in direct competition. City have Haaland, who can be said to have rested, but as Pep himself said, he now needs a match rhythm. His stats in PL are cosmic, so I'm counting on his hit today as well.
The match itself should not be boring, because after the break both teams will be looking for match rhythm and form, and thus there should be no shortage of mistakes on both sides. It remains for us to wait until the evening and enjoy this meeting.
