Manchester United vs Liverpool

Old Trafford is the venue as Manchester United and Liverpool lock horns in a mouth-watering Premier League encounter.

Manchester United took their supporters to another emotional rollercoaster in midweek Champions League action, coming from a 2-0 HT deficit to beat Atalanta 3-2 at Old Trafford. That victory has helped the ‘Red Devils’ faithful at least briefly forget about a dismal 4-2 Premier League away loss to Leicester City last time out. With pressure continuing to mount on manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, the hosts will be desperate to snap a three-game winless league streak (D1, L2) and hand their boss his first-ever managerial win over Liverpool in England’s top-flight (D3, L2). To do that, Man United will have to shore up their defensive woes, as they’ve failed to keep a clean sheet in any of their last nine Premier League home matches, their longest such run since February 1971.

In the meantime, inspired by a stunning 3-2 Champions League win over Atletico Madrid, Liverpool head into proceedings as the only English side yet to lose a competitive match this season (W9, D3). The ‘Reds’ dismantled Watford 5-0 at Vicarage Road in their most recent Premier League fixture, extending their unbeaten league streak to 18 games (W13, D5). Moreover, Jurgen Klopp’s men have netted 3+ goals in each of their last five Premier League travels, which was the case in their most recent top-flight visit to Old Trafford (4-2). The Merseysiders are now looking to register back-to-back Premier League victories at this venue for the first time since January 2002. Having scored a league-high 22 goals in the Premier League this season, Liverpool will relish their chances of upsetting bitter rivals on their own territory.
