Gary Neville makes Huge Liverpool claim ahead of Manchester Derby|LIVE FORUM

The former Valencia Head coach Gary Neville made known that a victory for united will be a blessing for Liverpool, which will give Klopp team a title boast Anfield club will be reluctantly cheering for Jose Mourinho's side.

As we all know, Liverpool and Chelsea are City's nearest challengers and both teams started Sunday just two points behind last season's champions.

"Liverpool fans will absolutely be supporting United on Sunday, no doubt,"
Neville told Sky Sports.
"Not supporting, but desperate for them to take points off Man City. So will Chelsea.

"There is a danger here to what City are doing that they could run away with this again. There is a danger. I did not think it three or four weeks ago, but in the last few weeks there have just been signs that they could pull away.

"They do not look like they are blinking, or wilting in any way, shape or form. I thought that the Wolves game was a game that could give others encouragement. It has not proved to be the case. They have destroyed everything in front of them and they are playing at such a high level.

"So I think at this moment in time, other teams will be looking at Man Utd to pull points off Man City. The league will be."

United haven't lost a league game away to City since 2014 and won last year's fixture 3-2 having trailed by two goals at half-time.

However, Neville doesn't think Pep Guardiola's players will have revenge on their minds.

"I do not feel City have a point to prove at all going into the derby when you are champions," Neville added. "The only point they have to prove is to themselves about whether they can repeat that level of performance from last season over this season and whether they can win the title again.

"Individual matches along the way, you will have bumps and obstacles. They have had a couple already, like Wolves away and… I would not say they dropped points at Anfield, as it was a good point for them, but obviously they did not win.

"They look absolutely fantastic, it is going to be a difficult game for them, they know that because of just the nature of Man Utd and how this team plays like Man Utd. You have to be well away from them to think that you are going to win the game in the game as they are always coming back."
