Manchester City-Liverpool, the likely lineups.

The 29th day of the Premier League opens with the super match between Manchester City and Liverpool. Kickoff at 1:30 p.m. at the Etihad. The Citizens are obliged to win to keep in the wake of leading Arsenal. The Reds, on the other hand, need important points to center the Europe zone, currently five points away.

Guardiola must do without Foden and will have to deal with the aches and pains of Haaland, injured in the national team: the Norwegian bomber should start from the bench, with Alvarez ready to replace him. Behind him will act De Bruyne, Bernardo Silva and Grealish. Klopp relies on the usual trident consisting of Salah, Nunez and Gakpo. In midfield with Thiago Alcantara and Bajcetic still out, room for Henderson Fabinho and Elliott.

Likely lineups.

MANCHESTER CITY (4-2-3-1): Ederson, Walker, Akanji, Ruben Dias, Aké, Gundogan, Rodri, De Bruyne, Bernardo Silva, Grealish, Alvarez. All. Guardiola.

LIVERPOOL (4-3-3): Alisson, Alexander-Arnold, Konate, Van Dijk, Robertson, Henderson, Fabinho, Elliott, Salah, Nunez, Gakpo. All. Klopp.
