Good afternoon and welcome to SunSport’s live coverage of the Liverpool vs Manchester City match!
Get ready, everyone! An exhilarating Premier League showdown is here.
Today’s Super Sunday matchup features Liverpool enjoying a six-point lead at the top of the table, sitting eight points ahead of Manchester City.
After Arsenal’s impressive 5-2 triumph over West Ham, Liverpool’s advantage has narrowed by three points, but this could be a temporary setback.
Arne Slot has made a smooth transition to his new role, steering a dynamic squad that has excelled in the Premier League this season, securing 10 victories in their first 12 matches.
Liverpool approaches this pivotal clash buoyed by the momentum of four consecutive wins across all competitions, having most recently overcome European giants Real Madrid in the Champions League.
Conversely, Manchester City’s recent form has raised alarms, as the team has struggled to secure a victory in their last six outings across all competitions.
This concerning stretch contrasts sharply with the high standards we’ve come to expect from Pep Guardiola’s side since his appointment in 2016.
A defeat for City at Anfield today would see them fall 11 points behind Liverpool and mark the first time a reigning Premier League champion would lose four straight matches in the season following their title win.
