Liverpool face Manchester City on Sunday afternoon in what is arguably the biggest game in Premier League history.
That may sound like something of an exaggeration, but this match is a crucial, potentially title-deciding game between two of the greatest teams we’ve ever seen in this country.
Liverpool come into this in better form than City, winning each of their last 10 league games, but as we all know, City are a different proposition than any other team on the planet.
Pep Guardiola’s side are a footballing machine, and while Crystal Palace and Tottenham have taken points off of them in recent weeks, Liverpool come into this one as slight underdogs.
A win here would mean the world for either team, and with that in mind, we’ve had a go at predicting the Reds’ starting XI for this one.
We think that Jurgen Klopp will make three changes from the team that beat Benfica last week.
We expect Diogo Jota, Jordan Henderson and Joel Matip to come back into the starting XI as Klopp fields what is arguably his strongest and most experienced starting XI.
This is the team that we have grown accustomed to seeing in big games for Liverpool, and while Luis Diaz has a strong claim for starting in this match, it’s hard to deny Sadio Mane’s reputation for turning up in games of this calibre.
