Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp has downplayed the Premier League title race involving his team and holders Manchester City as the greatest ever in the history of the competition.

The Reds and Manchester City have been involved in a keenly contested title race for the majority of the season thus prompting football fans and pundits to label it the greatest in Premier League history.

In his latest press conference ahead of the all-important league game at Welsh side Cardiff City, Klopp told reporters that Liverpool is just relishing the experience of fighting for the title as he played down the greatest title race tag.

Klopp and Liverpool started the weekend at the Premier League summit before they were usurped by a Manchester City side that recovered well from their Champions League exit to beat North London giants Tottenham Hotspur in their league clash on Saturday afternoon.

Manchester City were unlucky to go out of the Champions League at the quarterfinal stage to the same opponents (Tottenham Hotspur) via the away goal rule.

Manchester City exerted their pound of flesh in some form after they beat Spurs 1-0 at home in their league meeting to leapfrog Liverpool at the Premier League summit.

Phil Foden scored the only goal of the game for the Premier League champions.
