Manchester United vs Liverpool Preview

Manchester United vs Liverpool

Competition – Barclays Premier League

Stadium – Old Trafford

Date: 10th March 2018

Kick-off time – 12:30 GMT

The biggest game in the English Premier League comes again with more significance once again.

This game has more than 3 points to offer as the winner will become the team that most certainly finishes behind Manchester City in 2nd position at the end of the season.

The Red Devils managed to battle to a remarkable 3-2 against Crystal Palace in their last game after going 2 goals down.

That win followed a 2-1 win over Chelsea in the Previous match day and they are now unbeaten in their last 4 games.

However, United are just 2 points above Liverpool and 4 above Tottenham who are 4th and this game offers them the chance to leave Liverpool at least 5 points behind them.

Liverpool drew at home to Porto in midweek but it was a game of little significance and the Reds rested Mohamed Salah to keep him fresh for this match.

They have lost just once in their last 20 league games, won five of their last seven games in all competitions and have 7 wins from their last 10 away games in the league.

They have failed to score in only 2 of their away games this season and have the second highest number of goals scored in the league this season.

The last 4 matches between these sides have ended in draws.
