The derby dust has settled - now a much tougher test awaits City

City's only win in their last 22 visits to the red side of Stanley Park came behind closed doors when Phil Foden inspired a brilliant 4-1 win.

That was one of the first 'big' games where Foden stepped up and showed his world-class quality.

Now he's doing that every week, with the Manchester derby the latest stage for him to take control of.

If City want to win the Premier League, they probably have to go and win at Anfield.

They certainly cannot lose. So to see Mohamed Salah in the frame to return from injury is not a great way to start the week given the Egyptian's fine form against City at home. Salah has been out for 12 of the last 13 games after representing Egypt at the African Cup of Nations, returning with a persistent thigh injury.
