Experience one of the Premier League's most captivating rivalries as Manchester City host Liverpool at the Etihad Stadium. This fixture brings together two of England's most decorated forces - clubs that have redefined excellence in the modern era and set new standards for consistency and quality.

Manchester City remain one of the Premier League's dominant forces. Having won four consecutive league titles between 2020-21 and 2023-24, they finished as runners-up in 2025-26 and completed a domestic cup double, winning both the EFL Cup and the FA Cup. The campaign proved to be Pep Guardiola's last after a transformative decade, with his former assistant Enzo Maresca appointed as his successor. Their possession-based style and squad depth make them formidable opponents, with Erling Haaland's relentless goalscoring leading the line.

Liverpool, now managed by Andoni Iraola, are rebuilding following a turbulent 2025-26 campaign. Having won the Premier League title in 2024-25 under Arne Slot, the Reds slipped to a fifth-place finish the following season and parted ways with Slot at the end of it, turning to Iraola - who had impressed at Bournemouth - to lead a new era. With their passionate fanbase and rich history, Liverpool remain one of football's most respected and ambitious clubs.

Recent meetings: A tale of drama and quality

April 2026 - Haaland hat-trick at the Etihad

Manchester City thrashed Liverpool 4-0 in the FA Cup quarter-finals at the Etihad Stadium in April 2026, with Erling Haaland scoring a hat-trick and Antoine Semenyo also on target. Mohamed Salah, making his first appearance after announcing he would leave Liverpool at the end of the season, had a penalty saved by James Trafford. The result sent City into a record-extending eighth successive FA Cup semi-final on their way to lifting the trophy.

February 2026 - City's statement at Anfield

Manchester City scored twice in the closing stages to win 2-1 at Anfield in February 2026. Dominik Szoboszlai's superb free-kick had looked like settling it for Liverpool, but Bernardo Silva levelled and Erling Haaland struck a stoppage-time penalty to snatch victory. It was City's first league win at Anfield since 2003 and sealed their first league double over Liverpool since 1936-37.

The modern rivalry: Klopp vs Guardiola era

In 2018-19, City won with 98 points to Liverpool's 97 - the third and fourth highest points totals ever. Liverpool responded by winning the 2019-20 title with 99 points.

Their tactical battles and mutual respect elevated the rivalry to new heights.

Memorable matches

2018 Champions League Quarter-Final - Liverpool's Anfield masterclass: Liverpool produced one of their greatest European performances at Anfield on April 4, 2018, defeating City 3-0 in the first leg. Mohamed Salah, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain's thunderbolt, and Sadio Mané's header gave Liverpool a commanding advantage. Six days later at the Etihad, despite Gabriel Jesus' early goal and City's pressure, Liverpool won 2-1 with goals from Salah and Roberto Firmino, progressing 5-1 on aggregate to the semi-finals.

January 2019 - The goalline clearance: In a crucial title race encounter at the Etihad on January 3, 2019, City won 2-1 thanks to Leroy Sané's winner. The match is remembered for John Stones' incredible goalline clearance - the ball was just 11.7mm from crossing the line after his own poor clearance nearly gifted Liverpool an opening goal. Sergio Agüero's strike and Sané's decisive goal proved crucial in City's eventual title triumph.

January 2018 - The seven-goal thriller: Liverpool ended City's unbeaten Premier League start to the 2017-18 season in spectacular fashion at Anfield on January 14, 2018, winning 4-3. Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain's stunning long-range effort opened the scoring in a remarkable match that saw Liverpool race to a 4-1 lead through goals from Oxlade-Chamberlain, Roberto Firmino, Sadio Mané, and Mohamed Salah before City's late rally made for a tense finish.

September 2017 - City's statement victory: Manchester City produced a dominant 5-0 victory at the Etihad on September 9, 2017, their biggest-ever win against Liverpool. Sadio Mané's early red card for a high challenge on Ederson changed the match, and City capitalised ruthlessly with goals from Sergio Agüero, Gabriel Jesus (two), Leroy Sané, and another from Jesus to complete the rout.

April 2014 - Coutinho's crucial strike: In one of the Premier League's most memorable title race encounters, Liverpool defeated City 3-2 at Anfield on April 13, 2014. Raheem Sterling and Martin Skrtel gave Liverpool a 2-0 halftime lead, but David Silva and Glen Johnson's own goal levelled the match. Philippe Coutinho's exquisite curling effort in the 78th minute proved decisive, though Liverpool's title challenge would ultimately fall short following the infamous Steven Gerrard slip and defeat at Crystal Palace.

Cup competitions

2022 FA Cup Semi-Final: Liverpool won 3-2 at Wembley on April 16, 2022, in a thrilling encounter. Ibrahima Konaté headed Liverpool ahead before Mané doubled the lead. Jack Grealish and Bernardo Silva brought City level, but Mané's second goal of the match secured Liverpool's place in the final.

2022 Community Shield: Liverpool won 3-1 at Leicester's King Power Stadium on July 30, 2022. Darwin Núñez and Mohamed Salah scored, with Julián Álvarez replying for City, before Núñez added his second. This match marked the first competitive meeting between new signings Erling Haaland and Núñez.

Etihad Stadium atmosphere

A modern fortress

The Etihad Stadium, now holding over 60,000 following the completion of its North Stand expansion, provides a spectacular setting for Premier League football. Originally built for the 2002 Commonwealth Games, the stadium was transformed into City's home and has witnessed countless memorable moments as the club has risen to become one of England's dominant forces. The new North Stand reopened as the Pep Guardiola Stand in honour of the club's most successful manager.

Matchday experience

The Etihad offers excellent facilities, unobstructed views from all seats, and a passionate atmosphere on big matchdays. While the stadium has sometimes been criticised for atmosphere by rival fans, matches against Liverpool consistently bring out the best in the home support, creating an intense environment.

The Guardiola legacy

Between Pep Guardiola's arrival in 2016 and his departure after the 2025-26 season, the Etihad witnessed some of the finest football in Premier League history. The stadium saw City break numerous records, including the centurions season (100 points) and the domestic treble, with matches against Liverpool providing some of the most dramatic moments. The challenge of maintaining those standards now passes to Enzo Maresca.

Historical context

Manchester City's transformation

Manchester City's rise to become one of England's dominant forces represents one of modern football's most remarkable transformations. Since the 2008 takeover, City have won multiple Premier League titles, including an unprecedented four consecutive championships (2020-21 through 2023-24). Under Pep Guardiola, they achieved the domestic treble (2018-19), won their first Champions League (2022-23), and set the Premier League points record with 100 points (2017-18). After a runners-up finish and a domestic cup double in 2025-26 - Guardiola's final season - the club began a new era under Enzo Maresca. Their possession-based style and tactical innovation have redefined English football.

Liverpool's sustained excellence

Liverpool remain England's most successful club in European competition with six Champions League titles and have won 20 top-flight league championships. Under Jürgen Klopp (2015-2024), Liverpool won the Champions League (2019), Premier League (2020), FA Cup, League Cup, UEFA Super Cup, and FIFA Club World Cup. Arne Slot then delivered a record-equalling 20th league title in 2024-25 before a difficult 2025-26 ended in a fifth-place finish and his departure. Now under Andoni Iraola, Liverpool are determined to return to the summit.

The rivalry's significance

The modern rivalry between these clubs has produced some of the Premier League's finest football. Jamie Carragher described it as "the best we've ever had in English football," while the BBC noted that the clubs "have produced a rivalry that has taken the standard of English football to another level." Between 2017-18 and 2024-25, one of these two clubs won every Premier League title, a remarkable run of dominance that was finally ended by Arsenal in 2025-26.
