Manchester City cemented its standing as favorites to repeat as English Premier League champions with last week’s win against Chelsea, but this weekend offers another stiff challenge for Pep Guardiola’s men in the form of another title contender.
The Citizens visit Anfield on Sunday with a chance to jump ahead of the Reds, who currently hold a one-point lead on Manchester City. Liverpool is the sole remaining undefeated team, but Jurgen Klopp’s men will have their hands full trying to stop a Man City side eager to remove the bad taste left by its recent Champions League loss to Paris Saint-Germain.
FC Barcelona is desperation mode, and face an extremely difficult test against Atletico Madrid. Ronald Koeman is staring at a likely pink slip if the Catalans can’t muster a result against an Atletico side coming off a midweek Champions League win against AC Milan.
This weekend’s slate of matches also features the latest Los Angeles Derby, as both LAFC and the LA Galaxy need points in their quest for playoff positions in the MLS Western Conference.
