Liverpool is braced for the stiffest of tests.
Manchester City will host Liverpool on Sunday in a Premier League game between the teams most observers believe will be the most likely 2020-21 title contenders. Liverpool enters the weekend atop the Premier League standings with 16 points after seven games and lead 10th-place Manchester City by five points.
Manchester City beat Liverpool 4-0 last season in the corresponding game, but the teams had little to play for when they met. Liverpool's and Manchester City's respective motivations will be much different this time around.
