Man City’s star striker Erling Haaland is expected to miss Sunday’s Premier League clash against Liverpool due to a suspected injury. The 29-year-old Norwegian was substituted during the international friendly against Norway, raising concerns among fans and analysts. Medical assessments suggest he may have sustained a minor injury, though details remain unclear.

Haaland, who has been a key asset for Man City this season, has not played since the international break. His absence could impact the team’s attacking options, particularly against a Liverpool side known for its defensive resilience. Manager Enzo Maresca faces a difficult decision on whether to risk Haaland’s fitness or opt for a rested lineup.

This injury adds to the challenges facing Man City ahead of the match. The team has already faced scrutiny over its recent performance and disciplinary issues following a guilty verdict in the Premier League. With several players still adjusting to Maresca’s tactics, the pressure is on to deliver a strong result against a formidable opponent. The match at Anfield is expected to be a high-stakes encounter, with both teams vying for top positions in the league.
