Liverpool's dramatic 3-2 victory over Newcastle United has heaped pressure back onto Manchester City's shoulders in the Premier League title race. The Citizens have home ground advantage in their Monday night clash but the Foxes have found form under former Liverpool boss Brendan Rodgers and this will not be an easy assignment for Pep Guardiola.
