A tasty weekend of Premier League action will be headlined by a blockbuster clash between Manchester City and Liverpool.

“What I want from [my players] and what they want from each other is that they fight in every single game from the first until the last second to get the maximum result and that's what the fans expect from them playing for this club,” said Slot. “That's what we try to do in every single game and it's also necessary if you want to have any chance of a result in this league.”

Earlier on Sunday, Newcastle United and Nottingham Forest will meet in a crunch match at St James Park – a six-pointer as fas as the scrap to finish in the top four or five of the standings, and thereby secure qualification to next season’s UEFA Champions League.
