Manchester City v Liverpool - Premier League
Firmino will be in line to start against United on Saturday

Much like the Manchester United of last season, Liverpool have struggled in front of goal in the 2017/18 campaign. With Roberto Firmino struggling to apply the finishing touches and Daniel Sturridge failing to make the first team berth his own, Klopp has had a tough time getting the best out of his attackers.

In Liverpool's last game against Newcastle, they amassed an impressive 17 attempts on goal. However, only two of them found the target, of which one crept into the back of the net. Similarly, against Leicester, the Reds had a total of 23 chances, but only tested Kasper Schmeichel on six occasions.

Thus, there seem to be issues at both ends of the field for Liverpool, and if they are to come away with a positive result, they will need to put in a lot of effort on the training ground and work on certain aspects of their game.

Klopp is known to bring the best out of his players, and the Reds' faithful fans will be hoping for the same on Saturday.
