Man City were dumped out by Tottenham in thrilling fashion in midweek - and Merson thinks that's bad news for Liverpool. While the Reds are gearing up for a semi-final with Barcelona, City will have extra time to rest for the last few weeks of the Premier League season. But Merson thinks there is one thing in Liverpool's favour - the fact City face Tottenham (on Saturday) and then Manchester United (Wednesday) so soon after a sapping Champions League night. "I think City losing works against Liverpool. They've got another two games against Barcelona," Merson said.
