Man City and Liverpool could face each other in CL final - Eriksson

Former

manager Sven-Goran Eriksson believes that

and

are currently the top two clubs in the world and spoke about the possibility of their confrontation in the Champions League final.

Liverpool and City have performed very well in recent seasons, winning each of the last four Premier League titles between them and being the two front-runners again this season. This season, City are one point ahead of Liverpool, and the two teams will face each other next week at Etihad Stadium. Jürgen Klopp won the Champions League with Liverpool in 2019, but Pep Guardiola has not yet managed to lead City to the European title. Now Eriksson has talked about the possibility of a confrontation between the two teams in the final.

He said:

"I think Liverpool and Manchester City are the two best football teams in the world in this moment," he said. "Barcelona is not what it has been in many, many years. Real Madrid, so and so. Bayern Munich? Paris Saint Germain? No, I don't think so. So these two teams for me are the best in the world.

"They play the best football and they defend extremely well, both of them. They attack very good, different styles a little bit. But both managers are doing a great, great job with a lot of good football players. When these two meet, it's incredible if you look at the value of these 22 [players] starting the game. And also the benches.

"So, good coaches, of course good managers, but also many, many good football players. There are two extremely expensive teams going out next Sunday."
