Manchester City v LiverpoolPep Guardiola’s City were dumped out of the UEFA Champions League in the knockout phase round on Wednesday by Real Madrid, as Kylian Mbappe tore them to shreds in the Santiago Bernabeu.

Liverpool are top scorers in the Premier League (62 goals), followed by Manchester City (52 goals) in second place. Manchester City have conceded as many goals as Manchester United this season in the league (35), with nine teams having better defensive records. Meanwhile, Liverpool have kept the most number of clean sheets (10) in the league.

With the ascension of Omar Marmoush, Mo Salah won’t be the only Egyptian star on the field when Liverpool clashes with City. After netting a hat trick against Newcastle in just 14 minutes, a firing Marmoush would certainly bring Guardiola a measure of relief, especially if Haaland remains compromised.
