KEY PLAYERS TO WATCH
MOH SALAH -LIVERPOOL
The “Egyptian King” has made rubbish of any claims that he might be slowing down this season with 14 Goals and 8 Assists from 22 Matches in all competitions this season with 11 of those goals and seven of those assists coming in the Premier League.
Salah saves the pinnacle of his form for games against Man United too with his 12 Goals and 4 Assists from 12 Games his best record against any other team. Although his result record is 6 wins, 3 draws and 3 defeats against the club.
LUKE SHAW – MAN UNITED
Since returning from injury Shaw has been one of the club’s more consistent performers (aside from the defeat against Bournemouth at the weekend). Whether that be at LB or in more recent times at LCB his versatility and defensive acumen is crucial to the Man United defence.
It remains to be seen what position he is placed in at the weekend but whether it be beside Maguire at CB or at LB tasked with stopping Salah he will be crucial to any chance they have at the weekend.
***Update , Luke Shaw is a fitness concern after going off injured on Tuesday against Bayern.
LIVERPOOL V MAN UNITED PREDICTION & BEST BET
Prediction: Liverpool 2-2 Man United
If Liverpool inflicts something like the beatings they have on Man United in recent years, it’s not beyond the realms of possibility they have the pleasure of handing the proverbial bullet to under-fire manager ten Hag with a big win,
Man United need to stem the tide again in the league, the joy of their Chelsea display was short-lived with their shocking showing against Bournemouth last weekend. This is a bigger game for them as we reach the halfway mark of the season.
Can’t see Man United keeping a clean sheet and there should be lots of goals in this one I think a high-scoring draw could be on the cards (it may be the best United can hope for)
Best Bet: Score Draw @ 5/1
