It's not too often Manchester City fans can celebrate a United win, but perhaps Sunday was a rare exception.
Jurgen Klopp confirms 'serious' Liverpool injury blow in Man City Premier League title race
01.03.2024 - 23:09 / manchestereveningnews.co.uk
Liverpool goalkeeper Alisson Becker has suffered a serious muscle injury but Jurgen Klopp has claimed that it is not "season-ending" as they battle Manchester City and Arsenal in the Premier League.
The Anfield club will be without their Brazilian shot-stopper for the visit of the Blues this month after he suffered a muscle problem ahead of their clash with Brentford. Alisson was forced off late on in the reverse fixture with City at the Etihad Stadium in November with a hamstring injury but missed just three matches.
Liverpool sit one-point clear at the top of the Premier League ahead of this weekend's round of fixtures. Klopp's side take on Nottingham Forest on Saturday before City take on rivals Manchester United, while Arsenal travel to Sheffield United.

Caoimhin Kelleher has deputised in Alisson's place and has impressed for Liverpool. He helped them past Brentford before making several crucial saves in the Carabao Cup final against Chelsea and the FA Cup triumph over Southampton.
Alisson has already missed the last three Liverpool games and is set to miss the important top-of-the-table showdown with Pep Guardiola's side on March 10. It will be a race against time for the goalkeeper to be fit for the end of season run in with games against Man United, Everton and Tottenham Hotspur scheduled.
"There is no real timescale on it, but it is a proper muscle injury," Klopp said. "Different players recover differently. That is it pretty much. It is not a short one.
"It is not that he will be in contention for next week or something like that. We have to wait a few more
