A stellar match should have the best players on the pitch. The clash of the titans between City and the Reds forces Pep Guardiola and Jürgen Klopp to field their best players. For fans, the rivalry between the two strikers will be a delight, as once again Nunez and Haaland are compared.
Until a few days ago Darwin's presence was in doubt, as an ankle injury in mid-March ruled him out of the FIFA World Cup with Uruguay. The Anfield Talk reported that Nunez would be ready for the weekend's game, and even trained fully alongside Luis Diaz, who also travelled to Manchester.
Klopp knows that this game is about more than just three points, as it is the hegemony Liverpool have maintained over the Citizens who just celebrated knocking them out of the EFL Cup. Prior to that, three straight wins for The Pool, including the Community Shield final that saw Nunez make his goalscoring debut.
For LFC no Context, the unpopular decision to name Haaland as a better striker than Nunez, set fire to the networks, where the Red's fans came out in support of their player, despite the fact that in his first tournament, he has struggled to adapt, acknowledging that language was the excuse for his relationship with Klopp.
