When they head over to Merseyside to face Everton on Saturday, Manchester City might be a bit more nervous than they would have expected to be a little over a month ago.
Pep Guardiola's side will go into the game just three points clear at the top of the Premier League table, with the title race that many outsiders foolishly declared over still very much alive.
City's chaotic 3-2 defeat to Tottenham last weekend, coupled with 3-1 and 6-0 wins for Liverpool against Norwich and Leeds respectively, mean a 14 point lead from January has dwindled considerably.
