Manchester City vs Liverpool: Pep Guardiola dismisses his poor record against Jurgen Klopp ahead of crunch Premier League clash
Pep Guardiola has dismissed his poor record against Jurgen Klopp, insisting “the past is the past” ahead of Thursday night’s crucial Premier League title clash at the Etihad.Champions City can close the gap on the leaders to four points with victory, but an away win would spell disaster in their pursuit to retain their crown.3

Pep Guardiola, right, is unconcerned by his inferior record when he has come up against Jurgen Klopp

While October’s meeting between the two sides ended in a goalless draw at Anfield, it is the Reds who have a far superior record over City in recent times.Liverpool won three of the four clashes between the pair last season, including both legs of their Champions League quarter-final.However, Guardiola insists that is irrelevant, as is his losing record against Klopp.

Guardiola has won just five of their 15 meetings, with the German victorious eight times.He said: “The past is the past. It’s the same with 100 points, it’s in the past.3

The Reds boss has won eight of their 15 meetings, with Guardiola coming out on top five times

“I’m not going to judge the game on the previous game.“I don’t count the number of times I beat managers and feel how special I am. I don’t play against Jurgen or Jurgen against me. Our teams play. “He beats me, I beat him. I won leagues and cups, I lost some cups.”3

The pair went up against each other in Germany too, where Klopp was in charge of Borussia Dortmund and Guardiola Bayern Munich

The Spaniard insists his side can go to Anfield and end Liverpool’s unbeaten league record – which stands at 20 games so far.He continued: “They’re an exceptional side, they’re Champions League finalists. “With their results, what can you do? Hats off to them.We will try to beat them and that’s all.“If we don’t I will congratulate them and move forward and learn for our game.“But at least let us think that maybe we can win.”
