Liverpool's leading scorer Moh Salah
Manchester City have stumbled to their second successive defeat, losing on the road to Leicester City 1-2 on Wednesday evening.
The loss made the Pep Guardiola boys slip to the third position, now overtaken by Tottenham Hotspur, who beat AFC Bournemouth 5-0 at Wembley.
City who are the defending champions also lost 2-3 to Crystal Palace before the Christmas break at the Etihad Stadium. With 44 points in 19 games, they are now seven points behind leaders Liverpool who spanked Newcastle 4-0 at Anfield, and one point behind Spurs, with 45 points. (NAN)
