Ilkay Gundogan admits defeat at Premier League leaders Liverpool on Sunday could end Manchester City's Premier League title challenge as they scramble to end their poor run of form. City have won the past four Premier League titles but are already eight points behind Arne Slot's Liverpool following three straight defeats in the English top flight.

"Hopefully we can get out of this as quickly as possible and especially when this [game against Liverpool] is such a big game, there's the chance for a boost. We have to perform well first of all, but then we have to try and get something out of the game. That is how we will approach it.
