Liverpool FC boss Jurgen Klopp says Manchester City not yet running away with the Premier League makes the title race more compelling.
The Blues are favourites to land a third successive title this season, and could end the weekend in pole position should Arsenal fail to beat Nottingham Forest following the 1-0 win over Leicester on Saturday.
Many expect the champions to create a big lead between themselves and their title challengers down the line, but their inability to win three games has left the early-season door open. They dropped points against Newcastle and Aston Villa before suffering their first defeat of the campaign to Liverpool a fortnight ago.
