Kevin De Bruyne makes Liverpool 'privilege' claim for Man City title clash

Kevin De Bruyne has described playing Liverpool in Sunday's titanic Premier League title clash as a 'privilege' and that the match is an occasion to savour at the Etihad. A win for either side could have huge implications in the race for the title.
