Reds boss admits side are underdogs against Pep Guardiola's league leaders - but believes they can rise to the occasion
Jurgen Klopp admits Liverpool are underdogs heading into their Champions League clash with Manchester City.
But the Reds boss is confident his side can rise to the challenge and provide a quarter-final tie to remember.
All eyes will fall on Anfield this week as Pep Guardiola’s free-wheeling Premier League leaders roll into town for the first all-English Champions League clash since 2011.
The sides’ last meeting on Merseyside was a classic, Liverpool triumphing 4-3 at Anfield in January. It remains the only league defeat City have suffered so far this season.
Still, with Guardiola’s men all-but-confirmed as champions – they can clinch the title next weekend by beating Manchester United – Klopp is well aware of the scale of the task facing his team. City won the first game between the teams 5-0, when Sadio Mane was sent off at the Etihad back in August.
