6 reasons why Liverpool vs Manchester City would be the biggest clash of the 2018/19 Premier League season

#1 Their clashes last season left us wanting more

Both teams scored 18 goals between themselves last season

Man City and Liverpool met each other a total of four times last season; four absolute blockbusters that had the edge of your seat excitement in abundance and made sure there was never a dull moment.

It all started off with their first clash at the Etihad in September, where a contentious first-half red card to Saido Mane for stamping Ederson opened the floodgates for City to run out 5-0 winners.

That should have served as a lesson in pragmatism for Klopp, but the German stuck to his guns and insisted on attacking City and neutrals were the better for it, as the January fixture provided 7 goals in all proportions in what was one of the all-time classics and ended City's unbeaten run at 22 for the season and 30 consecutively from the previous season.

The two legs of their Champions League ties also provided excitement and displayed everything there is to love about football.

All of the pair's clashes last season were swashbuckling encounters which provided 18 goals (at a phenomenal rate of over 4 goals per match), with most of them memorable.

More of the same, please.
