Good afternoon! Welcome to SunSport’s live coverage of the match between Liverpool and Manchester City!
Are you ready? An exciting Premier League showdown is here.
Today’s Super Sunday matchup features Liverpool enjoying a six-point lead at the top of the standings, with Manchester City trailing by eight points.
After Arsenal’s impressive 5-2 win against West Ham, Liverpool’s advantage has narrowed by three points, but this may just be a temporary setback.
Arne Slot has smoothly adapted to his new role, leading a dynamic team that has excelled in the Premier League this season, achieving 10 victories in their first 12 games.
Liverpool heads into this vital match on the back of four consecutive wins across all competitions, most recently overcoming the formidable Real Madrid in the Champions League.
Conversely, Manchester City’s recent form has raised alarms, as they have gone winless in their last six matches across all competitions.
This worrying trend is a stark deviation from the high standards we’ve come to associate with Pep Guardiola’s side since he took the helm in 2016.
If City faces defeat at Anfield today, they will find themselves 11 points behind Liverpool and become the first defending Premier League champions to experience four straight losses in the season following their title win.
