Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers has said that he is looking forward to his side's clash against Manchester City at the Etihad Stadium on Boxing Day.

The Reds are currently a point clear of Manuel Pellegrini's team at the top of the Premier League.

"We have been on a fantastic run, the quality of our football is at a really high level - we're pressing the game very well, our aggression to get the ball back is good," Liverpool's official website quotes him as saying.

"We'll arrive there on Boxing Day in a really good moment. It's a game I'm really looking forward to."

Arsenal will reclaim top spot from Liverpool on Monday if they beat Chelsea at the Emirates Stadium.
