Liverpool are offered the chance to extend their lead at the top of the Premier League on Sunday.
While Manchester City have closed the gap to two points, Jurgen Klopp’s side can make use of the champions not being in action down at Bournemouth.
Three points would put them five clear of City, albeit having played a game more.
The Cherries, however, will not be an easy opponent. Finding form under the stewardship of manager Andoni Iraola, they have lost only once in their last six games.
Here’s everything you need to know about the game.
