Roy Keane feels Manchester City could struggle to catch Liverpool in the Premier League title race if it loses to Arsenal on Sunday.

Pep Guardiola’s side travels to the Emirates in what feels like a crucial game just a few weeks into the new season.

Speaking during Sky Sports’ pre-match coverage, Keane highlighted that Liverpool lost just four league games throughout the entirety of last season.



“City, already having lost two league games, you think if they lost today, they would be a long way back.

Should Arsenal beat Manchester City, it will trail Liverpool by just three points.

Former City defender Micah Richards was less concerned about Liverpool establishing an early lead but admitted that his old club is not as imposing this season as it has been in recent years.

“It feels mad how it's this early in the season and you feel that if you lose a game, it's the end of the world because you've got three teams essentially going for the title.

“I think historically you're looking at Man City and thinking they normally put a run of 10, 15 games where they could win them all

I don't think they’re that Man City at this moment in time, so it would be difficult.

“We're not going to write Man City off if they were to lose today but to catch Liverpool now is [difficult].”
