RIYADH: Al-Hilal sent a message to the rest of Saudi Arabia with the biggest-ever win in the Roshn Saudi League, a 9-0 thrashing of Al-Hazm that restored their four-point lead over Al-Nassr in second. They meet next Friday, and mouths are already starting to water.
Defending champions Manchester City take on Liverpool in a top of the table clash of the Premier League at the Etihad Stadium on Saturday. Liverpool trail City by a solitary point in the Premier League table and head into this fixture hoping to prove they are once again genuine title contenders. However, Jurgen Klopp's men have won only two of their six away league games so far and face the ultimate challenge at the Etihad. City have won 23 matches in a row at home in all competitions dating back to December last year.
Liverpool head to Manchester City on Saturday for a clash between the Premier League's top two teams, hoping to prove they are once again genuine title contenders. The Reds have been City's most consistent challengers during a dominant era for Pep Guardiola's men. Liverpool's first title for 30 years in 2019/20 was the only time City have failed to become champions of England in the past six seasons. In 2018/19 and 2021/22, they edged out Jurgen Klopp's side by a single point in thrilling title races.
Manchester City were thwarted by Cole Palmer's 95th minute penalty as Chelsea salvaged a 4-4 draw from an incredible clash on Sunday, while Mohamed Salah fired Liverpool up to second in the Premier League. A share of the spoils at Stamford Bridge leaves City one point ahead of Liverpool, who beat Brentford 3-0, and Arsenal at the top of the table. Palmer came back to haunt his former club as City three times let the lead slip against the Blues.
Sunday's Premier League fixtures:
Manchester United eased the pressure on under-fire boss Erik ten Hag with a nervy 1-0 win against Luton on Saturday, while Tottenham conceded twice in stoppage time to lose 2-1 at Wolves. Newcastle also crashed to a shock defeat as Dominik Solanke's double took Bournemouth out of the relegation zone. Rocked by Wednesday's devastating Champions League group stage loss in Copenhagen -- the latest embarrassment in a season of low moments -- United gave Ten Hag some much-needed breathing space thanks to Victor Lindelof's second-half winner.
Premier League leaders Manchester City travel to Chelsea on Sunday with Erling Haaland in ominous form as Arsenal and Tottenham seek to recover from their first defeats of the season. Early-season results boosted hopes of a genuine title race but City were the only team in the top five to win last weekend. At the other end of the table, the bottom four sides are in danger of being cut adrift even before the season is a third of the way through.
LONDON: Sevilla boss Diego Alonso has challenged his players to avenge their Champions League loss to Arsenal when the Spanish side meet the Gunners in a crucial Group B clash on Wednesday. Defeat for the reigning Europa League champions would leave their chances of reaching the Champions League knockout stages hanging by a slender thread. Arsenal are top of the group after their 2-1 win at Sevilla a fortnight ago, while Alonso’s men sit four points behind them in third place with three games to play. Alonso believes Sevilla deserved more from their last encounter with Arsenal and he wants his side to prove a point when they face the Premier League title chasers in north London. “We competed well, with an unfair result for me because we did more for the game,” Alonso told reporters on Tuesday. Arsenal have lost two of their three domestic games since beating Sevilla, with Saturday’s 1-0 defeat at Newcastle an especially painful result given the controversial nature of the Magpies’ winner. Keen not to rile up Mikel Arteta’s side any further, Alonso was respectful of Arsenal’s quality, rating them as one of Europe’s elite clubs in Europe, “The game at a strategic and football level is complex,” Alonso said. “We are facing the fourth or fifth best team in Europe, they showed it last season, same in this one. “It puts us in difficulties, but it also put us in difficulties two weeks ago.” Sevilla will be without former Real Madrid star Sergio Ramos after the defender was ruled out with a calf injury.
