Liverpool vs Man City 4pm kick off decision explained for Sky Sports live Premier League clash

manchestereveningnews.co.uk:

Manchester City's Premier League title defence hangs by a thread - which could be snapped on Sunday if they lose at Liverpool to fall 11 points behind Arne Slot's leaders.

City are on a six game winless run, ending a streak of five losses this week with a draw against Feyenoord in the Champions League - but from a position of strength at 3-0 they collapsed in the final 15 minutes to draw 3-3.

Next up is a trip to Anfield, where a win would cut the gap to Liverpool to five points and kickstart City's season. But defeat would see double figures between the two sides, and Pep Guardiola has said an 11 point gap would be too much to claw back and retain the title.

Usually on those Super Sunday schedules, the first game is a 2pm kick off and the headline slot starts at 4.30pm. However, Liverpool vs City has been moved forward by 30 minutes.
