On the other hand, Pep Guardiola's men suffered a single defeat in a nail-biting shoot-out against Wolves in the final of the Premier League Asia Trophy.

The Reds still hold a better head-to-head-record against the Citizens overall, wining seven out of nine, but City were superior to their rivals last season, winning 2-1 at the Etihad and drawing 0-0 at Anfield.
