Premier League title showdown at Anfield

Liverpool host Manchester City in a huge Premier League game on Sunday.
The Reds, who were once again impressive in beating Real Madrid on Wednesday night, opened up an eight-point gap on the champions after beating Southampton 3-2 in dramatic fashion last weekend.
As such, Arne Slot’s side could go 11 points clear of the champions, who are in an unusual state of crisis.
Thrashed 4-0 by Tottenham on Saturday, Pep Guardiola’s side then collapsed when leading by three goals to draw 3-3 with Feyenoord in the Champions League on Tuesday night.
For the first time in his career, Guardiola is on a run of six games without a victory. Fragile defensively and lacking ideas in attack, the City boss has already conceded that losing at Anfield would spell an end to his side’s hopes for a fifth consecutive title.
With Liverpool in such strong form, the odds look stacked against the champions.

Liverpool vs Man City team news
Liverpool have been handed a double scare, after Conor Bradley was forced off with what appeared to be a hamstring problem against Real Madrid and Ibrahima Konate needed treatment after the match.
The pair will be assessed in the coming days, but Trent Alexander-Arnold could come back into the starting lineup against City after making the bench on Wednesday night.
City had Ruben Dias back on the bench for Tuesday’s game in a major boost for Guardiola, who needs all the defensive help he can get right now.
John Stones, however, missed the game and none of Mateo Kovacic, Rodri or Oscar Bobb will play.
