8 - Pep Guardiola has lost more games against Jürgen Klopp in all competitions than he has against any opposing manager in his career (8). Meanwhile, of sides he’s faced at least 10 times in all competitions, Guardiola’s lowest win rate is against Liverpool (30.8%). Nemesis.
1 - Liverpool have had just one shot in the first half, their fewest in the opening 45 minutes of a Premier League match at Anfield since January 2017 against Chelsea (also one). Tepid.
Brilliant from Salah to escape down the right and play Mane in, who finishes clinically. This place is bouncing.
1-0 Liverpool
