Jurgen Klopp’s first true Liverpool test comes against an in-form Manchester City at the Etihad stadium.
Man City will be missing Bony, David Silva, Samir Nasri and Vincent Kompany while Liverpool will not be able to field Joe Gomez, Danny Ings and Jordan Henderson.
The Reds head to the Etihad Stadium this evening where they have not won in the league in seven years.
Raheem Sterling will come up against the club he left somewhat acrimoniously in the summer after rejecting a new and lucrative contract at Anfield.
