Jurgen Klopp has insisted Sunday's mouth-watering Premier League showdown between Liverpool and Manchester City will not be the decisive blow for either side in the title race.
The Reds go to the Etihad one point behind Pep Guardiola's side but with a slightly better goal difference, having both played 30 matches.
It is the latest chapter of a thrilling rivalry that has dominated English football in recent seasons with an FA Cup semi-final between them to come next weekend and the possibility of a Champions League final in Paris next month.
