Man. City v Liverpool: 5 key battles which could define Etihad clash

3) Vincent Kompany v Christian Benteke

City’s captain isn’t 100%, but we can’t imagine he’d miss this one. And while Daniel Sturridge has returned to full training, we can’t see Jurgen Klopp starting anyone apart from Christian Benteke up top. On his day, our Belgian can bully anybody, including his international team-mate – especially if Kompany’s carrying a slight knock. Benteke can provide us a longer ball option if we’re under pressure, but his main task will be to bring Coutinho and Roberto Firmino into the game. If he scores a goal as good as the last time he was in Manchester, that’d be nice as well!
