Before we go ahead with our Live coverage read the Preview: Manchester City travels to Liverpool in a meeting of the Premier League’s most dominant teams of the past four years. But Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp goes into the game facing major questions over his ability to keep pace with Pep Guardiola after a difficult start has his team 13 points adrift of the reigning champions. Klopp insists Liverpool is out of the title race — even at such an early stage — but Guardiola claims they remain City’s greatest threat at the top. Guardiola is convinced that midtable Liverpool remains Manchester City’s biggest threat in the Premier League this season ahead of their game at Anfield on Sunday. The City manager has warned his players they face defeat if they are as “soft” as they have been in recent encounters with their rival. Second-place City sits 13 points ahead of Liverpool, with Jurgen Klopp conceding his team is not in contention for the title after its early-season struggles. But Guardiola insists last season’s runner-up is still the main challenger to defending champion City. “Always has been, always it is and always will be," Guardiola said Friday. “I know the quality they have, they know the quality we have. So if I was asked this question with five or 10 games left, I will say I think Liverpool cannot catch the top of the league — in that case Arsenal. “But being in the position that we are, with the World Cup, everything can still happen.” With inputs from AP Read all the ** Latest News ****,** ** Trending News ****,** ** Cricket News ****,** ** Bollywood News ****,**  India News  and  Entertainment News  here.
