Liverpool host Manchester City in the Premier League this weekend in huge showdown at Anfield.
Arne Slot’s side lead the Premier League title race and can put significant room between them and the champions with a win. The Reds will move 11 points clear of Manchester City with three points, emphasising the high stakes.
Liverpool enter the contest buoyed by a 2-0 win over Real Madrid on Wednesday night and Slot’s side have won 14 of their last 15 in all competitions.
City, in contrast, are struggling. The Citizens are without a win in six games across all competitions, an unprecedented run of form under Pep Guardiola.
Liverpool vs Man City – Predicted lineup and team news
Liverpool team news
Arne Slot has confirmed that Trent Alexander-Arnold is fit and ready to start after the right-back’s return to the bench against Real Madrid. An unused substitute, his return is timely after Conor Bradley sustained a late issue against the Spanish side.
Ibrahima Konate also picked up a knock and will be assessed, with Joe Gomez the likely replacement if he is unable to feature. None of Diogo Jota, Federico Chiesa, Alisson Becker or Kostas Tsimikas are expected to be available.
Slot’s big decisions will come in midfield and his forward line. Cody Gakpo and Dominik Szoboszlai are options to inject freshness after starting from the bench in midweek.

Liverpool predicted XI: Kelleher; Alexander-Arnold, Konate, Van Dijk, Robertson; Gravenberch, Mac Allister, Szoboszlai; Salah, Diaz, Nunez.
