The England legend has opened up ahead of the weekend's fixtures

England legend Terry Butcher thinks Manchester City will earn a draw against Liverpool in Sunday's crunch Premier League clash at Anfield.

Pep Guardiola's side have struggled of late, failing to win their last six matches across all competitions.


But Butcher thinks they've got enough to come away from Anfield unscathed, even if a draw would see the eight-point difference between the two sides remain intact.

Manchester United host Everton on Sunday at Old Trafford, and the former Three Lions centre back expects the home team to come out on top.

He’s tipping the Red Devils to win 2-0, a result that would secure United’s new manager with back-to-back wins following his success on Thursday night in Europe.

But a defeat would heap the pressure on Everton boss Sean Dyche, with Toffees’ fans increasingly unhappy about the direction the team is going.
