Hot on the heels of their sensational 7-1 Champions League win at Rangers, the Reds next host City in a much-anticipated clash at Anfield on Sunday afternoon.

See 12 facts and figures on the fixture below…

Liverpool are unbeaten in the last four meetings between the sides in all competitions, with two wins and two draws.

Behind the scenes of Community Shield victory

The Reds have failed to score in only one of the last 28 league encounters at Anfield – a goalless draw in October 2018.

Roberto Firmino’s first goal for the club came against City in a 4-1 victory at Etihad Stadium in November 2015. The Brazilian has played more times versus City in all competitions (16) than he has against any other team, scoring five.

Mohamed Salah has scored eight goals in his 15 Liverpool appearances against City in all competitions. Only three players – Ian Rush (15), Kenny Dalglish and Gordon Hodgson (11 each) – have netted more often in the fixture for the Reds.

Salah claimed a hat-trick at Rangers on Wednesday night; not since Jack Balmer in November 1946 has a Reds player scored a treble in successive matches.

Jürgen Klopp has won 11 and lost nine of his meetings with Pep Guardiola as a manager, across his time at Borussia Dortmund and Liverpool.

The Reds have not lost successive league games with fans inside the stadium since September 2015 – and never before under Klopp.

Liverpool substitutes have scored eight goals in total so far this season, the same number that they achieved in the whole of the 57-game title-winning campaign of 2019-20.

In the last eight clashes in all competitions, 32 goals have been scored – Liverpool 15, City 17.

Guardiola’s team have won two and drawn two of their four away league games so far this season. They beat Wolverhampton Wanderers 3-0 and West Ham United 2-0 and drew 3-3 with Newcastle United and 1-1 with Aston Villa.

Bournemouth’s Mark Travers is the only goalkeeper to prevent Erling Haaland from scoring in the Premier League this season.

City have lost only one of their last 37 league fixtures – a 3-2 defeat at home to Tottenham Hotspur back in February.
