Liverpool have opened a five-point gap at the top of the Premier League table, following a 2-0 win over Aston Villa in Saturday’s late kick-off.
The Reds maintained their stunning start to life under Arne Slot with a comfortable win at Anfield.
Darwin Nunez opened the scoring in the first half of the game, sweeping the ball into the net after a fast break.
Mohamed Salah then rounded off the win with a goal in the late stages.
The win takes Liverpool to 28 points, five more than Manchester City, who suffered a shock 2-1 loss at Brighton.
City have now lost four matches on the bounce in all competitions.
