City pipped the Reds to top spot last term but now trail Jurgen Klopp’s men by six points in their bid to go three in a row.

The deficit will be halved as soon as Sunday if the champions prevail in a top-of-the-table encounter at Anfield.

But defeat could leave them behind Chelsea and Leicester City, who are two points further back, by the end of the weekend.

Despite the form of the teams below, star striker Aguero expects the challenge to come solely from Merseyside.

“Liverpool has always been a tough opponent,” Aguero was quoted as saying to France Football.

“But when I arrived, the team we were fighting for the title was [Manchester] United. Initially, it was something strange in the city that City competes against United. Then there was Chelsea.

“But these last four seasons, Liverpool have become a very strong team and are now fighting with us to win the Premier League.

“It’s the only team in the league that can hurt us. They have been chasing a new league [title] for years. Last season, they didn’t go all the way, so they are very motivated. This year, they are in front of us and will try to go to the end.”
