There were no such problems Thursday for Liverpool, who rallied to a 3-1 win over Leicester in foggy conditions at Anfield and moved seven points clear atop the standings approaching the halfway point of the campaign.
City dropped more points in their improbably poor run of form by drawing 1-1 at home to Everton, with Haaland having a spot kick saved by England goalkeeper Jordan Pickford in the 53rd minute.
The four-time defending champions have only won one of their last 13 games in all competitions and manager Pep Guardiola acknowledged he needs to spend in the January transfer window to reverse City's slide.
"The transfer window in the winter is not easy, but even the players know that we have to add some new players," said Guardiola, who has had to cope without a host of key players, including Ballon d'Or winner Rodri, through injury this season.
While City are languishing in seventh place, United is even further adrift in 14th place after a 2-0 loss at lowly Wolverhampton.
