Liverpool’s Virgil van Dijk and Nathan Ake share a close friendship off the pitch, but it’s all-out war once the whistle blows at Manchester City’s Etihad Stadium this Saturday. Following their recent 4-0 loss to France, Van Dijk faces both criticism and anticipation as he steps onto the pitch with his top-four-chasing Liverpool team, fighting Man City’s title-contending champions for a crucial win, live on talkSPORT.
