Yes, this is UCL night, but what about Liverpool seizing the gap between them and City to only three points

If they top Leeds (22.45), the Reds will be much closer to the table-toppers and we could head into a spectacular title chase
Not so long ago, it didn't seem too good for the Scousers as Pep Guardiola's outfit was miles ahead at the top of the Premier League table.
However, five wins out of five in the games since New Year's Eve have pushed Liverpool to as high as second place. Along with successful domestic cup appearances and that 2-0 Champions League away win at Inter, Jurgen Klopp's boys are enjoying a stellar growth that could see them coming so close to City after tonight's fixture.
If they top more than vulnerable Leeds United in the previously postponed EPL tie, the Reds will be only three points adrift of the Citizens.
There shouldn't be too many problems on the horizon here for Liverpool. Bielsa's defence has conceded an average of three goals per game over the last ten Premier League fixtures.
In that much-expected scenario of Liverpool's victory, we'll have more than a tremendous title chase in prospect, especially considering the fact there are yet many more games to be played before the end of the league.
