Jamie Carragher and Micah Richards make huge bet on Liverpool vs Man City showdown as pair agree that the loser will buy the winner a £2,000 designer suit

The biggest game of the Premier League season so far takes place this weekend and Jamie Carragher and Micah Richards will now be even more nervous when their former clubs face it.

Just one point separates the league leaders Reds from the reigning champions ahead of the huge clash at Anfield on Sunday afternoon.

And Liverpool legend Carragher has made a big bet with former City defender Richards on the outcome with the loser having to buy the winner an expensive designer suit.

Speaking on CBS Sports after City’s comfortable Champions League last-16 victory over Copenhagen on Wednesday night, Richards said: “a wonderful evening.” I said it before the game and I wasn’t being arrogant.

“Jamie (Carragher) was alluding to the fact that maybe he was trying to be arrogant, but he wasn’t. I just think Manchester City have too much quality.

“They are on a good run of form at the moment and hopefully it continues because in the next few weeks, Liverpool, Newcastle, Arsenal…”

At this point, Carragher interrupted and asked: ‘Has Pep ever won at Anfield?’ Richards responded: “Once. We did statistics, right? I don’t remember when it was, it was once every nine and four draws too.”

Carragher said: “One in nine when there was no crowd. I’m going there.’

Host Kate Abdo then chimed in and asked what they were willing to bet on the game, and Richards responded, “Hmm, a suit! “I want a new Thom Brown suit.”

Carragher seemed a little worried when he asked how much they cost before agreeing and shaking his hand.

Richards then made it clear that Carragher could have any suit he wanted for a similar price if Liverpool were victorious.

Thom Browne suits cost over £2,000 on their website and are known for their quality.
