What could be an early bellwether of the 20/21 Premier League season is set to play out at the Emirates Stadium on Sunday, when Pep Guardiola's Citizens look to gain ground on Jurgen Klopp's table-topping Reds.
Arguably the two strongest teams in the league and many pundits tips to slug it out in a dual for this season's title.
The away side arrives in Manchester having registered a convincing 5-0 Champions League win over Atalanta on Wednesday, following a battling 2-1 win at home to West Ham last Saturday in the Premier League.
Those matches saw Liverpool field a patched up defense in the absence of Virgil Van Dijk, Fabinho and Joel Matip. But while the likes of Nathaniel Phillips and Joe Gomez have stepped up well, Klopp's makeshift backline look set for a tougher challenge on Sunday.
City striker Gabriel Jesus is set to return from injury to the starting line up with fellow frontman Sergio Aguero likely to be fit again to be an option from the bench for Guardiola.
It all looks set to be a cracking game - read on to find out how to watch a Man City vs Liverpool live stream, no matter where you are in the world.
