Things have not gone Manchester United’s way this season. The team has struggled to find its form, and a trip to Anfield with a wobbly squad seems like a recipe for disaster. United fans are yet to recover from the 7-0 defeat at the Reds’ hands last season. Erik ten Hag and his men will have to bring their best game forward to achieve a positive result against the Premier League table-toppers, Liverpool.

Jurgen Klopp and his men are currently on cloud nine. The side sits at the top of the Premier League points table with 37 points to its name. Liverpool currently has a one-point advantage over second-placed Arsenal and will look to widen the gap when they take on United in front of a jam-packed Anfield crowd.

Liverpool vs Manchester United: Prediction

Manchester United is going through one of their roughest campaigns, with the team suffering a shambolic exit from the UEFA Champions League in the Group Stage. The side will be desperate to turn things around, but their visit to Anfield might be their biggest challenge so far this season. Liverpool has been nothing short of impressive this season and should comfortably bag three points at the sound of the final whistle.

Liverpool vs Manchester United: Team Updates

Jurgen Klopp has a fair share of his injuries on his hands but will be boosted by the return of his senior players, who were rested ahead of the team’s Europa League encounter against Union Saint-Gilloise. However, the team will be without the services of Joel Matip, Stefan Bajcetic, Andrew Robertson, Thiago Alcantara, Diogo Jota, and Alexis Mac Allister, with all six players out for an extended period owing to injuries.

Manchester United is currently on the receiving end of constant injury blows this season. The side’s last game saw both Harry Maguire and Luke Shaw being taken off the field. The duo will join a long list of names alongside Anthony Martial, Mason Mount, Amad Diallo, Christian Eriksen, Lisandro Martinez, Casemiro, Tyrell Malacia, and Victor Lindelof, who’ll be missing out on the game due to their respective injuries.

Apart from the massive list, United captain Bruno Fernandes will also miss the game. Bruno picked up his fifth yellow card in his last outing and is set to serve a one-game suspension. Meanwhile, Jadon Sancho continues to stay in purgatory after being frozen out from the first team by Erik ten Hag.
