Manchester City midfielder Phil Foden insists today's clash at Liverpool will be decisive in the title race.

City and Liverpool have dominated the last couple of Premier League campaigns.

With Pep Guardiola's men top of the table again, Foden says about the game at Anfield: "It is probably the biggest game that we face in the league now. If we can beat them it will be a massive win and will help us progress to the title, hopefully.

"We beat them at home [in the 2018-19 season] and the atmosphere was great that day. That is the game that sticks in my mind most, when Sergio scored from a tight angle at the near post.

"Going to Anfield, we have struggled pretty much every time for whatever reason. We haven't won there for a while. Hopefully we can change that at the weekend and get a result. It has always been a massive game.

"When I was younger, it was more about the (Manchester) derby, but now there are more teams for us. Liverpool are a great side and have so many great attackers. I can see it being quite even and end-to-end."
