Liverpool v Manchester City: Premier League live

Liverpool and Manchester City met in a Premier League fixture kicked off at 4.30pm BST on 11 October 2026.

A four-match international break presented a stress test; the Wales head coach Craig Bellamy said, "The intensity of the squad, the athleticism of it, really, I think it’s designed for the elite," on the completion of four matches in 11 days. The Nations League and the wider set of international games staged across the globe have been accompanied by a daily list of casualties, with club officials viewing matches through their fingers as players pull up and gesture to the bench.

Almost certainly to the disquiet of Enzo Maresca, City’s Elliot Anderson and Marc Guéhi were, alongside Harry Kane, the only England players to start all four Nations League matches, with Nico O’Reilly withdrawing halfway through. Liverpool’s problems included Alexander Isak and Cody Gakpo — early successes for the Andoni Iraola regime — sustaining injuries with Sweden and the Netherlands respectively, and Jérémy Jacquet reportedly strained a hamstring with France.
