Man United v Liverpool Preview
Man United’s Form
Man United have been nothing short of chaos on and off the field for the best part of a decade now, but despite their EFL Cup success last season that was scant consolation for United supporters. They’ve been arguably poorer this season coming bottom of their Champions League group, currently 6th and far away from qualification again and their sole chance of success left being the FA Cup.
It's no surprise that ten Hag is under increasing pressure for his role with the usual media basket case that comes with the role compounded by the pressure of the incoming INEOS Regime and their higher on-the-field expectations. Following United’s collapse at Chelsea on Thursday ten Hag has the unenviable task of getting them up for a Sunday dance with Liverpool where a poor result/performance could see his role on tenterhooks.
ten Hag needs a performance at the weekend.

Liverpool’s Form
Liverpool are flying with 13 points from their last 5 Premier League games to put them top of the table 2 points clear of Arsenal and 3 ahead of Man City with the closing weeks of the Klopp Liverpool love-in looking very likely that there could be plenty of silverware involved with them having Premier League and Europa League claims to add to their EFL Cup from earlier in the season.
On Thursday Night, Liverpool took the lead through Nunez in the 17th minute, but a Bradley own-goal in the 58th minute left their league lead in jeopardy. However, a magical Mac Allister strike and a late Gakpo goal sealed a well-deserved three points after their XG accumulated 2.52 to Sheffield’s 0.72.
Victory for Liverpool ensures they stay on top.

Key Players To Watch
Kobee Mainoo – Man United
The newest wonderkid to come out of Carrington? Kobee Mainoo (18) already looks like the midfielder the club has been searching to find for decades now, anyone who watches Mainoo play can see that he demonstrates calmness and composure far beyond his years and when unavailable United look lost without him.
Due to their defensive crisis, there will be considerably more pressure on Mainoo to support their defensive effort against Liverpool on Sunday to prevent them from being over-run and open at the back.
Caoimhin Kelleher – Liverpool
In the absence of Alisson through injury, Corkman Kelleher has been handed the opportunity to get the gametime he arguably deserved, and he has taken the opportunity with both hands. After playing for Ireland once during the International Break, this may be his final chance in a Liverpool shirt with Alisson reportedly closing in on match fitness.
Man United v Liverpool Prediction & Best Bet
Prediction: Man United 1-3 Liverpool
Man United are in a constant state of utter chaos, but such are the fine margins that despite being on the wrong side of a 4-3 on Thursday against Chelsea. Only a few weeks ago they were on the right side of a 4-3 against Liverpool in the FA Cup.
This is Liverpool’s toughest test in the run-in (if United can be considered that these days) and a victory would put them in with a huge chance of winning the league.
Liverpool are worthy favourites for this game.
Best Bet: First Goalscorer Moh Salah @ 7/2
