Manchester United vs Liverpool Preview and Team News
Manchester United Team News
One of the most storied rivalries in English soccer – Manchester United vs Liverpool – is here. This time, the matchup carries added pressure, with both sides chasing a top-four finish.
Man United currently sit third in the table, having altered their formation to 4-2-3-1 under interim manager Michael Carrick. They’ve gone unbeaten in four of their last five matches, with their only setback a 1-2 defeat to Leeds.
In their last game, the Red Devils beat Brentford 2-1 despite holding just 45% possession. The team generated an xG of 1.36, created four big chances, and registered six shots on target.
On the injury front, Matheus Cunha is a doubt due to a groin issue, while Matthijs de Ligt remains sidelined with a back injury. Fellow central defender Lisandro Martinez has been suspended.
Manchester United predicted lineup vs Liverpool (4-2-3-1): Lammens; Shaw, Yoro, Maguire, Dalot; Casemiro, Ugarte; Mount, Fernandes, Diallo; Sesko.
Liverpool Team News
Liverpool are currently fourth in the table. Far from retaining their title, the Premier League defending champions are now focused on securing a Champions League spot. The team arrive on the back of two consecutive victories, though they’ve won just three of their last five games overall, losing two.
In their most recent outing, they defeated Crystal Palace 3-1. Alexander Isak had 100% shooting accuracy and scored a goal, while Alexis Mac Allister assisted two goals and recorded 12 key defensive actions.
The Reds have a long list of injuries. Mohamed Salah, Hugo Ekitike, Giorgi Mamardashvili, Alisson Becker, Wataru Endo, Conor Bradley, Giovanni Leoni, and Stefan Bajcetic are all ruled out.
Liverpool predicted lineup vs Manchester United (4-2-3-1): Woodman; Robertson, Van Dijk, Konate, Frimpong; Mac Allister, Gravenberch; Gakpo, Wirtz, Chiesa; Isak.
Manchester United vs Liverpool Prediction
- Pick: Manchester United to win or draw
- Odds: -244 (20Bet)
- Correct score prediction: Manchester United 3-2 Liverpool
We expect either a draw or a Manchester United victory. The Red Devils have beaten Liverpool in 17 of their previous 42 meetings, losing just 11.
At home, their record is even stronger, as they’ve avoided defeat in 17 of their last 23 encounters at Old Trafford. The last two clashes between these clubs have also seen this bet land.
Manchester United vs Liverpool Prediction, Betting Tip
- Pick: Total over 3 goals
- Odds: -133 (20Bet)
We expect at least four goals here. The numbers support it – each of the last six meetings between Manchester United and Liverpool has produced at least three goals, with three exceeding that total.
The Red Devils have scored nine goals across their last five matches, while the Reds have netted seven in the same span, which shows that both sides are in good attacking form. Man Utd average almost two goals per home game this season.
For Liverpool, Cody Gakpo, with 11 goal contributions, remains a major threat.
