Manchester City coach Pep Guardiola believes Jurgen Klopp will 'be back sooner or later'

Pep Guardiola does not think Sunday's meeting with Jurgen Klopp will be their last, as leaders Liverpool host second-placed Manchester City at Anfield, with the victors set to be top of the Premier League with 10 games to go.

The pair have shared many memorable battles over the past decade, first in the Bundesliga and then at the vanguard of the Premier League, and face one last top-of-the-table clash at Anfield.

With Klopp leaving Merseyside at the end of the season, only the possibility of a meeting in the latter stages of the FA Cup could now add another chapter, leaving the German to reflect on their long battle for supremacy.

While Liverpool have a slender one-point lead going into the match and Klopp boasts a marginally superior head-to-head record in their 29 contests together, with 12 wins versus 11, he happily places the former Barcelona man as peerless in the modern game.
