Pep Guardiola won't have a better chance to win at Anfield with Manchester City

Daily Mail  

Manchester City are heading to Anfield in pursuit of their first win on Merseyside since Jurgen Klopp became Liverpool manager in October 2015. Manchester City have a tremendous opportunity to clinch a rare win at Anfield on Sunday Confidence is low at Liverpool after they slumped to a 1-0 defeat by Brighton on Wednesday A first Anfield victory with City for Pep Guardiola would move his side 10 points clear of Liverpool with a game in hand, the death knell for their Premier League title defence in early February. There is also the possibility of Ozan Kabak or Ben Davies being handed their debut against City which, if it coincides with Fabinho proving his fitness, would see captain Jordan Henderson returned to Liverpool's midfield. The potential return of Fabinho would be a huge boost for Liverpool defensively Ozan Kabak, a deadline day signing from Schalke, is another alternative for central defence Fabinho and Kabak's presence may see Jordan Henderson return to Liverpool's midfield They will be tasked with curbing Liverpool's famed front three of Mohamed Salah, Sadio Mane and Roberto Firmino, with Diogo Jota still a short while off first team action as he rebuilds his fitness after recovering from injury. Phil Foden is fast becoming one of the essential City players under Pep Guardiola's guidance Klopp will also need to find a way to stop his old Borussia Dortmund man Ilkay Gundogan Gundogan and Foden have hit top form to help City surge to the top of the Premier League Only Raheem Sterling and Kevin De Bruyne have a better record but with the Belgium international out injured and Sterling often wilting when he returns to his former club, the stage is set for Foden.
