Manchester City favourite Shaun Wright-Phillips has backed his old club to pip Liverpool to the Premier League title ahead of their seismic showdown on Sunday.
He has conceded, however, that Jurgen Klopp's Reds could still win the title - even if they lose at the Etihad on Sunday. Liverpool have surged back into contention to claim another domestic title by eating up a 14-point deficit since the turn of the year, leaving them just a single point behind the reigning champions ahead of this weekend's crunch slash.
Klopp's side are bidding to make amends after an unprecedented injury crisis last year saw them relinquish their Premier League crown with a whimper. Manchester City had looked omnipotent earlier in the year, but the pendulum of momentum has shifted towards the Reds; who even briefly overhauled Pep Guardiola's charges at the top of the table last weekend after playing before City.
