Liverpool: With Manchester City's 1-0 win over Tottenham on Saturday, City is back in first place by a point. The Reds need a win here to get back into first place, and dropping points could be deadly in the title race. After this game, Liverpool would have played one more match than City, who will play Manchester United on Wednesday. If Liverpool were to only get a draw, City could go three points clear midweek with a win. A lot at stake here.
Cardiff City: Cardiff saved its season with the 2-0 win at Brighton midweek. A loss would have seen this team eight points back and would have likely confirmed their relegation. But now trailing by just two, they have a realistic chance of staying up. It's unlikely they'll beat Liverpool, but anything can happen. Cardiff would likely take a point here if it could.
