It would feel as though City are out of the title race, essentially. Their awful form in recent weeks puts them in that position - and makes Arne Slot's men overwhelming favourites.

But to get this one over the line, pretty much everything must go right. Liverpool can't afford any wild mistakes that add chaos to this one.

Travelling fans will be hoping for the same, of course - so here's what to expect from the travel and weather.

Liverpool vs Man City: Travel and weather

Weather-wise, this should be an enormous upgrade from last week. Storm Bert wreaked havoc on the south coast when Liverpool made their trip to Southampton.

But there are no such concerns this time around. Weather is expected to be about as calm as it gets - around 13 degrees and cloudy.

No one should have any trouble, then - either in or out of the ground.

As for travel, there will be road closures in Liverpool city centre on Sunday. The annual Santa Dash is enjoying its 20th anniversary.

However, that should be wrapped up before 11 am, with the dash itself only really affecting those looking to travel up the strand. No one getting to Anfield for the match should be affected.

All in all, everything is as expected ahead of this one.
