Manchester City host Liverpool on Thursday night in the Premier League.

It could have been a clash to confirm the title, but City’s defeat at Chelsea handed the Reds the trophy late last week.

Pep Guardiola’s side have since recovered with a win in the FA Cup, but will hope to show their league form is still capable of beating the top sides, too.

Liverpool have enjoyed a break since their win over Crystal Palace and will receive a guard of honour from the City players ahead of kick-off.
