A major Manchester City weapon is ready for Liverpool but doubt remains over the fitness of two players

Manchester City's upcoming match against Liverpool at Anfield is set for Sunday, marking the sixth Premier League fixture of the season for the Red Devils. Currently leading the table after five consecutive wins, City enters Anfield under the scrutiny of a 115 verdict. Despite this external pressure, manager Enzo Maresca remains focused on maintaining their impressive start to the new season.

Concerns have been raised about the fitness of three key players: Erling Haaland, Antoine Semenyo, and Nico O’Reilly. However, Maresca assures that Haaland is fully fit and ready to contribute to City's performance against Liverpool. Speaking at a press conference on Friday, Maresca confirmed Haaland's availability, attributing his good health to a recent recovery period following international duty.

The status of Semenyo and O’Reilly remains uncertain. Semenyo had withdrawn from Ghana's national team due to a swollen ankle, but has since begun training ahead of the match. Meanwhile, O’Reilly, who was initially sent home early from England's international duty due to an undisclosed injury, also remains in doubt for the game at Anfield. City's manager did not provide further details on O’Reilly's condition during the press conference.
