Man City v Liverpool kick-off time and live stream: How to watch Premier League blockbuster including latest team news from the Etihad

The Premier League’s top two sides from last season clash at the Etihad this weekend as Manchester City host champions Liverpool.

Jurgen Klopp’s Reds have continued in fine form this term and go into this week top of the table.

City, meanwhile, have struggled to find their best, following up a draw at West Ham with a narrow win over Sheffield United last weekend.

Despite the season only being a few weeks old, this Sunday’s blockbuster will still have huge implications for the rest of the campaign.

Man City v Liverpool: Match stats and facts

• Manchester City have won their last three home league games against Liverpool by an aggregate score of 11-1. They’ve not won four consecutively against the Reds at home since March 1937.
• Liverpool haven’t kept a clean sheet in any of their last 10 away league games against Man City, conceding 26 goals in total in that run (W1 D2 L7).
• Manchester City have won nine of their last 10 Premier League games against reigning champions, with the only exception in that run being a 2-4 loss at Leicester in December 2016. However, they’ve won none of their last 11 when facing Liverpool as the previous season’s title winner (D2 L9) since a 3-1 win in October 1977.
• Manchester City are looking to win consecutive league games for the first time this season. The Citizens have scored exactly once in each of their last four matches – they last went five consecutive Premier League matches without netting more than once back in March 2009.
• Liverpool have conceded 15 goals in their seven Premier League games this season, as many as they shipped in their first 26 league games last term. Indeed, it’s the most the Reds have conceded seven games into a league campaign since 1964-65 (also 15).
• Since the start of last season, Liverpool have won a league-high 28 points from losing positions in the Premier League, coming from behind to win each of their last two games. The Reds have never won three consecutive Premier League games when conceding first, with Arsenal in March 2012 (4) the last to do so in the competition.
• In their six Premier League games this season, Man City have scored just nine goals (1.5 per game) and have an expected goals (xG) figure of 7.9 (1.3 per game). It’s their lowest xG per game rate in the competition since we have this data available (2013-14), while it’s their lowest goals-per-game rate in the league since 2007-08 (1.2).
• Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola has lost more games against Liverpool’s Jürgen Klopp than he has any other manager in his career (8).
• Mohamed Salah has scored 80 Premier League goals in 115 games for Liverpool since joining the Reds in 2017, at least nine more than any other player in the division in that time.
• Two of Diogo Jota’s three goals for Liverpool in the Premier League this season have been as a substitute – no other player has scored more than once from the bench in the competition so far this term.
