Manchester City will play host to Liverpool in their next match of the Premier League 2025-26 on Sunday, Nov. 9. The Etihad Stadium is expected to be packed to its 60,000 capacity as the hosts take on the reigning Premier League champions, intending to avenge their loss earlier this year.

City and Liverpool are set to clash for the first time since February, when the Reds bagged a 2-0 victory on their way to lifting the Premier League trophy. 

Pep Guardiola’s City outfit is heading into the contest with a place ahead in the standings over the third-placed Liverpool side, despite both teams winning six games each. With a draw and three losses, City are currently on 19 points on the EPL table, while Arne Slot’s Reds have 18 points with an undefeated campaign, featuring four draws.

Arsenal hold the numero uno spot with 8 wins, one draw and a loss.

With Milos Kerkez making a slow start at Anfield, Liverpool could have Andrew Robertson back in Slot’s starting XI. Alexander Isak also has the chance to make it to the squad, while Curtis Jones is back in training.
Unfortunately for Liverpool, Jeremie Frimpong has been ruled out for six weeks due to injury. 

Manchester City will be delighted to have all their players fit and available for selection as they look for a four-point lead on the titleholders.
