The Legit News reports that the Reds will host Pep Guardiola’s men tomorrow at Anfield.
Should Liverpool beat the champions at Anfield, the victory will open an 11-point gap between them.
However, Konate would not be part of this story after sustaining an injury late in the game during their 2-0 victory over Real Madrid in the Champions League on Wednesday evening.
The French defender is anticipated to be sidelined for a number of weeks
In a statement on social media, Konate expressed his disappointment: “It is so frustrating to have sustained this injury.”
“Now we start the recovery process. But one thing I promise is I will come back and be the best I can be once again.”
Meanwhile, former Premier League player Chris Sutton has expressed his views on the impending clash between Liverpool and Manchester City, predicting a favourable outcome for the Merseysiders.
Chris Sutton believes Liverpool have the potential to beat Manchester City, similar to Tottenham Hotspur’s recent victory over coach Pep Guardiola’s side.
Recall that Tottenham Hotspur delivered a resounding 4-0 defeat to Manchester City at the Etihad Stadium last weekend.
Sutton suggests that Liverpool can build on their recent success following a 2-0 victory over Real Madrid in the UEFA Champions League.
He stated, “I think the level of intensity Liverpool displayed against Madrid will be challenging for City. Their midfield looks robust, and Curtis Jones really shone in that match.”
Sutton added that a victory for Liverpool would not only extend their lead over the reigning champions but also mark a significant moment in their season.
“A win that sets them 11 points ahead of this formidable opponent would signify a fantastic week and an even better campaign,” he commented. He is predicting a scoreline of 4-1 in favour of Liverpool
