Liverpool are still at the top of the standings with 60 points but now they will not be able to maintain the top of the standings safely because Manchester City have also bagged more wins with total of 59 points, their difference is only 1 point and this is very possible for shift to occur at any time.
If Liverpool really make mistake that causes defeat then they will definitely go down if Manchester City continues to win and can get full points in every match.

You're right, I don't think Liverpool will be able to hold onto the top spot in the standings with the players they have available, if their injured players don't return in a few weeks. Manchester city currently with 59 points, Manchester City and Liverpool are separated with one point, which is not safety for Liverpool. However, it's not as though they can only lose their position to Manchester City, if Liverpool lose any of their games, Arsenal will pass them in the standings. We all know how strong Arsenal is right now they can defeat any Premier League team. I think Klopp should hope that Mohamed Salah with the other key players can return as soon as possible. Because their absence will effect their performance.
Everything you wrote could be said about Man City or Arsenal... Now they have roughly the same opportunities to top the standings... Based on last season's experience, Man City are probably the most stable of these clubs... Last season they easily moved Arsenal away... Perhaps this time they will repeat it with Liverpool...
It may not only liverpool but city may repeat it with liverpool and arsenal. Arsenal bottled EPL trophy last season and it was also making arsenal had very bad record as a team with horrible performance at the end of season. 33 winstreak with 91% win rates but trophyless. Is there even a worst thing than it?
It can also happen to the liverpool and arsenal again. City looked like weak enough this time coz the fact it's always winning with narrow scores in the last game. Perhaps guardiola is still saving some weapons to be used at the end of season.
It's hard to predict which club that is going to winning the game soon. Im feeling that city will pass liverpool/arsenal that probably lead the game till the end of season. It's only a matter of time till city to fiip the card back again.
The history has recorded how city was always doing this thing many time to surpass its rival at the end of season. We can kindly wait for the result from this very strict competition.
Bookies is still favoring city.
I would like to pick city to defend its EPL trophy. Liverpool and arsenal are very consistent but the mentality will be also defining which club that will win EPL.
