Title race

City won the Premier League title last season, but it is Liverpool who are on the verge of clinching it this time around.

The Reds are at the top of the league table at the moment with 82 points from 29 matches, as many as 25 points clear of second-placed City, who have played 28 games.

Football in England is suspended at the moment due to the global health crisis, and it is not clear exactly when the season will resume.

However, Liverpool will be confident that once the campaign gets back underway, they will get the job done and win the league title for the first time in the Premier League era.
