Liverpool legend, Jamie Carragher believes that his former club could play a significant role in the Premier League title race between Arsenal and Manchester City.
Liverpool will take on Man City on April 1, while the Reds will also face Arsenal on April 8.
In his column for the Telegraph, Carragher also said that Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp would want to get one over his Man City counterpart Pep Guardiola after the Citizens ended Liverpool’s push for a quadruple last season.
The former England defender said, “For all Liverpool’s difficulties this season, aside from when City and Arsenal play each other, they are the greatest challenge remaining in the league.
“It was City who ended Liverpool’s quadruple bid a year ago. Jürgen Klopp will be desperate to put a dent in Guardiola’s treble bid this time.
“Whichever side [between Arsenal and Man City] beats Liverpool will feel like they are a step closer to winning the league. If City succeed and Arsenal don’t, the Treble talk will get louder.”
As it stands now on the Premier League table, Arsenal are on top with eight points ahead of Man City.
Though, Manchester City, who sit in second position, have a game in hand.
