PEP GUARDIOLA PREVIEW

“I know the quality they have and they know the quality we have.

“If we get this question with 10 games left, I would say Liverpool cannot catch Arsenal. But with the World Cup, anything can happen.

“In the last years we fought for all the titles and were close. We were a little bit better, especially in the Premier League. But nothing changes the opinion I have of them.

“A table never plays a team - the game will be dictated by what happens on the pitch, not that we are in front or behind [in table].

“[It’s] always difficult and has been in these years we arrive together. Tough game, we won’t discover anything else that’s special.”
