The hosts currently sit in sixth place in the Women's Super League, while Liverpool are in ninth position after winning one of their opening four league games.
Match preview
After beginning the season with defeats to Aston Villa and Chelsea, the Citizens appear to have found their best form in their previous three matches in all competitions.
Man City recorded their first win of the season with a comprehensive 4-0 victory over Leicester City before Tottenham Hotspur were brushed aside via a 3-0 scoreline last weekend.
The Citizens were in action once again in midweek, and it proved to be another dominant display as they thrashed Blackburn Rovers 6-0 in the League Cup.
Mary Fowler and Julie Blakstad both netted two goals apiece against the Championship side, while Hayley Raso and Vicky Losada also got on the scoresheet.
Despite winning their last two league games, Man City are still six points adrift of the top three, but they will look to continue to climb up the WSL table with another victory on Sunday.
Newly-promoted Liverpool began the season with a 2-1 win over WSL champions Chelsea, but they have failed to add another point to their tally since that memorable victory.
Although they have managed to claim two League Cup victories - including a 4-0 win against Leicester in midweek - Liverpool have lost their last three league games without troubling the scorers.
Katie Stengel's two penalties against Chelsea are still the only league goals the Reds have scored this season, and as a result, they are stills searching for their first league goal from open play.
Finding the net against a Man City side who have kept three consecutive clean sheets may prove difficult, but Liverpool can at least take confidence from the fact that four different players found the net against Leicester on Wednesday.
If they can claim their second league victory of the season on Sunday, then Matt Beard's side will move level on points with their opponents.
