Selected game | Liverpool vs Manchester United
Why you should support Liverpool
As always, United will be unwelcome at Anfield and the Reds will count on that advantage. It has served them well, and they can look back to last season for confidence going into this match. They won the 2021-22 matches 4-0 and 5-0, with Mohamed Salah scoring five of the goals. They lost at Old Trafford early this season, but Salah also scored in that season and the Reds kept the ball in 71% of the game. Liverpool are 8-3-1 at home, while four of United’s five losses have come in home games. The Reds are plus-18 on home goal difference, second best in the league.
Manchester United are minus-3 at home and the Reds are unbeaten in their last six league meetings at Anfield (3-3-0). The Reds should be able to control the match again as they are second in league possession with almost 60%. Salah has nine goals and five assists in the league. Diogo Jota and Roberto Firmino they also returned from injuries to add bite to the attack. Firmino has seven goals in 17 matches. Jota scored 15 last season and while he is yet to break through, his presence has been felt.
Why you should support Manchester United
The Red Devils may be motivated by being underdogs, but they will need no motivation against their opponents. They are 18-3-1 in all competitions since losing 3-1 Aston Villa on Nov. 6 and scored at least twice in all but two games. They have posted 10 clean sheets during the run. Marcus Rashford and Jadon Sancho scored in the first meeting this season, and Rashford has been on an impressive tear of late. The 25-year-old has 17 goals in his last 20 matches in all competitions and has 14 in 24 league games this season. He is third in the Premier League in shots on goal (30).
Bruno Fernandes he has been a versatile playmaker for United over the past four seasons. The Portuguese forward has five goals and six assists, giving him 41 goals and 31 assists in 110 league games for Man U. Fernandes ranks second in the league in shot creation actions (119) and third in goal creation actions (14). United are far more proactive defensively than the Reds, having 89 more blocks and 72 more tackles. Liverpool’s defense has had some crucial gaps this season. Midfielder Casemiro plays a big role in Man U’s defense and has scored clutch goals.
