Man City vs Liverpool TV channel, live stream, kick-off time & early team news

Liverpool are nearing a return to Premier League action as they travel to face Manchester City this weekend.

The Reds go to the Etihad Stadium on Saturday to take on Man City, as their quest to secure a Premier League top-four finish continues. Liverpool are currently seven points adrift of fourth-placed Tottenham Hotspur with two games in hand.

Jurgen Klopp’s side go to Man City looking for a similar result to the reverse fixture, which they won 1-0 in October. However, the Reds go into the game on the back of consecutive 1-0 defeats to Bournemouth and Real Madrid.
