Pep Guardiola preview

On Liverpool, he said: “They remain an exceptional team. My opinion doesn’t change for a season that had up and downs. Every team can have these up and downs.

“My opinion about Liverpool remains the same. Winning the Champions League or having a season of having up and downs. Nothing changes. Now the biggest rival is another one this season. But whatever happened in the past, always will be a big rival.”

Previous meeting

City and Liverpool last battled it out in the Carabao Cup where we put on a thrilling display during our 3-2 win at the Etihad Stadium in December.  

City took an early 10th minute lead through Erling Haaland followed by a quick reply by Liverpool’s Fabio Carvalho 10 minutes later.

      Riyad Mahrez gave City the advantage two minutes into the second half but once again Liverpool kept pace. A goal from Mohamed Salah one minute later levelled the playing field for a second time for the visitors.  

      Centre-back Nathan Ake’s clinical headed goal in the 58th minute put us in the lead for a third and final time to send City through to the quarter-finals of the Carabao Cup.  

      Last time out

      City secured our spot in the semi-finals of the FA Cup after an impressive 6-0 display against Burnley where Erling Haaland tallied his sixth hat-trick of the season across all competitions.

      Julian Alvarez bagged himself a second-half brace which was separated by Cole Palmer’s first goal of the season.
