Pep Guardiola knows which sparkling Man City star can end Liverpool's title hopes

Phil Foden will be the key in this weekend's shoot-out at the Etihad – where I expect Manchester City to keep the title's destiny in their own hands.

As a contest between two of English football's greatest empires in the Premier League era, there is virtually nothing to choose between City and Liverpool. Since the 2018/19 season, Pep Guardiola and Jurgen Klopp have been head and shoulders above the rest – and the stats prove it.

In their last 144 games, City have taken 338 points with a goal difference of +242, Liverpool have stockpiled 337 points with a +202 goal difference. That's why it's so hard to pick one side or the other to win on Sunday and win the title.
