Read our privacy policy Pep Guardiola still considers Liverpool to be Manchester City’s biggest challengers in their defence of the Premier League title, despite Jurgen Klopp's side making a troubled start to the season. Ahead of a meeting between the two sides at Anfield on Sunday, Liverpool are 13 points adrift of the defending champions and 14 behind top-of-the-table Arsenal after winning just two of their opening eight games. Klopp himself has suggested that any hope Liverpool had of winning their second league title during his seven years in charge has all but disappeared but Guardiola insisted that in a season interupted by a winter World Cup, a lot can still change. Despite Liverpool's slow start, they enjoyed victory over City in the season's traditional curtain-raiser by winning the Community Shield and beat Guardiola's side at Wembley in the FA Cup semi-finals in April.
