Good afternoon and welcome to SunSport’s live coverage of Liverpool vs Manchester City!
Get ready, everyone. A Premier League showdown is about to unfold.
Liverpool approaches today’s Super Sunday clash with a six-point advantage at the top of the standings, sitting eight points clear of Manchester City.
Following Arsenal’s commanding 5-2 victory over West Ham, the Reds’ lead has been trimmed by three points, but this might only be a temporary hurdle.
Arne Slot has swiftly acclimated to his new position, guiding a team that has been exceptional in the Premier League this season, securing 10 wins out of their first 12 matches.
Liverpool enters this crucial encounter riding the momentum of four straight victories in all competitions, with their most recent triumph coming against European powerhouses Real Madrid in the Champions League.
In contrast, Manchester City’s recent performance has been concerning, as they have not won in their last six outings across all competitions.
This alarming trend is something that’s nearly unrecognizable for Pep Guardiola’s team since he took charge in 2016.
If City faces defeat at Anfield, they will find themselves 11 points adrift of Liverpool and become the first Premier League champions to lose four straight matches in the season following their title victory.
