Liverpool and Manchester City face off at Anfield on Sunday in what could be one of the most important matches in the Premier League title race this season.

The Reds are one point ahead of the reigning champions after 27 matches, so nothing can be decided for some time, but a win for either team would be a major boost in their title aspirations. Arsenal, just a point further back in third, will be watching with interest.

Liverpool have been battling an injury crisis recently, but Mohamed Salah's return to action in the UEFA Europa League on Thursday was a huge plus for Reds fans. However, the sight of Ibrahima Konate limping in the same match will be worrying.

For City, Jeremy Doku and Matheus Nunes are doubtful, and Jack Grealish is not expected to be involved, but Pep Guardiola otherwise has few injury concerns and was even able to rest some of his key stars for the midweek victory in the UEFA Champions League against Copenhagen.

Jurgen Klopp will continue to carefully manage his injury list during the campaign, with a host of key players still sidelined.

Dominik Szoboszlai is also in good shape, but the goalkeeper Alison should be missing, with Trent Alexander-Arnold. There are also doubts around Ibrahima Konatewho appeared to suffer a muscle injury against Sparta Prague.
