Both Liverpool and Manchester City are set for their final game in Sunday's Premier League title decider

The Reds will host Wolverhampton at Anfield while Manchester City will battle it 'away' against Brighton.
Ahead of their respective showdown, Arsenal legend Paul Merson believes City will be crowned champions at the end but will be on both title contenders winning against their opponents.
Speaking on Sky Sport Merson said: "I just can't see Man City not winning. Nothing shocks me in football after the Champions League this week.
"But when you look at this week, the two teams who came back are very good teams, with very good players.
"Even though it was a miracle, people will say miracles happen, Brighton have a chance – they're not the same class as the players who did what they did this week.
"They're grinding results out as well. At the start of the season they were wiping the floor with teams, now they're not but they're keeping clean sheets, being hard to beat and nicking goals.
"There was a bit of panic with Man City on Monday – no disrespect but Vincent Kompany's shot should have gone 50 yards over! But they should be fine. Brighton 0-3 Manchester City."
On Liverpool vs Wolverhampton Merson added: "If Man City go ahead early, Liverpool have got to just get this game out of their memory, get it out of the way.
"They might need to get in front early doors, but if Man City go 2-0 up, they've got to start thinking about the game in three weeks in my opinion.
"Wolves will be dangerous, but there's no place like Liverpool. It'll be a hard game for them, though. Liverpool 2-1 Wolves."
