Jurgen Klopp and Antonio Conte have told Man City how to respond in title race

If Liverpool beat Leeds tonight, as expected, they will be just three points behind Manchester City with a trip to the Etihad to come.

It's rare that a fan from Manchester would be rooting for Leeds, but any help City can get from Marcelo Bielsa's side would be gratefully appreciated back at the Etihad.

Still, City know the score after the weekend's results. They have home advantage when they face Liverpool in April, and also know they can extend the lead again this week when Liverpool are in Carabao Cup final action. The longer City maintain any sort of gap to second, the more pressure on Jurgen Klopp's side.

And it appears Klopp is aware that his chasers are still second favourites for the title, regardless of their result against Leeds.

"Nothing has changed, really. We need to win," he said on Tuesday, reacting to City's defeat against Spurs.

"We expect that [City will win their games]. We play them once, that's one we definitely want to win. This game [Leeds], nothing has changed."

Klopp is right. If Liverpool start thinking about City, they will take their eye off the points on offer themselves and wont be in a position to capitalise if City slip up again. The only time they can affect what City do is that showdown at the Etihad in six weeks.

He is also correct to expect City to win every game, as they are clearly capable of doing. He is putting pressure on City with those comments, but Klopp also knows full well that if City match Liverpool's results, they win the title.

Guardiola is a huge advocate of the one-game-at-a-time approach Klopp is encouraging for his team, and it's a mentality that has seen three of the last four titles arrive in east Manchester. He doesn't need Klopp to remind him of how to react to
