Liverpool will be banking on the Anfield factor to propel them to victory against Manchester City on Sunday. Despite becoming a major force in recent years, City have a miserable record at Liverpool, where they have not won in the Premier League since 2003. Chelsea, in third place, will attempt to stay on the coat-tails of the top two away at Southampton while fourth-placed Tottenham host Cardiff.

With Liverpool hosting Manchester City, the blockbuster fixture pitching first against second, both sides put their unbeaten records on the line. City lead Liverpool on goal difference but are without a Premier League win at fortress Anfield for 15 years and travel with the painful memory of three defeats against the Reds last season.
