Jurgen Klopp admits he expects Manchester City to win all of their remaining games in the Premier League title race following Liverpool’s win over Chelsea at Anfield.
Pep Guardiola’s side briefly topped the table on Sunday following their 3-1 victory over Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park.
But Liverpool moved back to top spot after goals from Sadio Mane and Mohamed Salah sealed a 2-0 win against Chelsea.
LIverpool remain two points ahead of City, who have a game in hand, but Klopp feels the Premier League champions will not slip up in their remaining five fixtures.
‘The first question in the meeting today was ‘what is the City score?’ You cannot avoid knowing about it. But it isn’t interesting to us,’ Klopp told BBC Sport.
‘We expect them to win all their games so we just need to get as many points as possible and if we’re champions then great but if not it is still a really good football team.’
Guardiola, meanwhile, also believes City need to win all of their remaining games to finish as champions.
‘It was really good, after Tuesday when we suffered a bit it was an incredible performance,’ Guardiola said after City’s win over Palace.
‘There’s five games left, it’s in our hands but if we just drop one or two points we won’t be champions so we have to win all our games.’
