Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola has revealed the only team in the Premier League better than his side.

Pep Guardiola has acknowledged that Manchester City face a disadvantage in the Premier League title race as he believes "Liverpool are better" than his team. 

Despite a recent improvement in form, City remain in third place in the standings, two points behind Liverpool and Aston Villa. 

Guardiola claims Liverpool are better than Manchester City

Guardiola, aiming for a record fourth-successive Premier League title, admitted that Liverpool is currently in a superior position to finish at the top of the table by the end of the season.

"[The title race is] so tight - we're not top of the league, Liverpool are better," Guardiola told BBC's Match of the Day after Saturday's 2-0 win at home to Sheffield United.

 "We've had injuries and some problems, we won the titles, important ones, our level is really good I would say and we are there.

"Now rest, we all need it. January is less intense than November and December so we prepare for what's next."
