Liverpool v Man Utd team news

Liverpool
Alexis Mac Allister, Joel Matip, Thiago Alcantara, Diogo Jota, Stefan Bajcetic and Andy Robertson remain sidelined.

Manchester United
Captain Bruno Fernandes is suspended and Harry Maguire is out after limping off in the midweek defeat to Bayern. Marcus Rashford returns from illness but Anthony Martial is not well enough to return. Tyrell Malacia, Casemiro, Lisandro Martinez, Mason Mount, Christian Eriksen and Amad Diallo are all out injured and Jadon Sancho is out of favour.

Liverpool v Man Utd predictions

Manchester United and Erik ten Hag will have horrifying memories of last season’s 7-0 hiding away at Liverpool and their latest visit to Anfield could be another harrowing experience.

The Red Devils crashed out of the Champions League courtesy of their 1-0 loss at home to Bayern Munich on Tuesday and that came only three days after a 3-0 home defeat to Bournemouth.

That means Ten Hag’s side have lost seven of their opening 16 league games - they are the only team yet to draw this season - and they have been beaten on trips to Tottenham, Arsenal and Newcastle.

Having failed to score in three of their last four matches, United must be fearing the worst against a Liverpool side who started the weekend top of the Premier League pile.

Jurgen Klopp’s side are unbeaten in nine league games and they have been utterly dominant at their Anfield fortress, where they have won all seven of their outings.

Six of those seven wins - the exception is their most recent 4-3 win over Fulham - have been by at least two goals and they can repeat the trick against United.

Goals look assured given six of the last seven meetings between these rivals have gone produced at least three goals, and a free-scoring encounter would spell trouble for United.

Liverpool were beaten 2-1 in the Europa League at Union Saint-Gilloise on Thursday but having already topped the group, Klopp was able to ring the changes and rest his leading lights including Mohamed Salah, who wasn’t even in the matchday squad.

That should mean the Reds are fit and raring to go against United, who have failed to score in seven of their last eight visits to Anfield.

For one reason or another, Ten Hag has been unable to consistently get the best from his players and a suspension to Bruno Fernandes won’t help their cause on Merseyside.

With Lisandro Martinez and Harry Maguire injured, there are also problems for him to address defensively and a rampant Liverpool side could take full advantage.

The hosts have scored three or more in six of their seven home league games and they have put at least four past United in four of their last five league meetings.

With that scoring prowess in mind, home advantage on side and United depleted by injuries and suspensions, the Reds should prove at least two goals too good for their inconsistent visitors.

Liverpool v Manchester United bet builder predictions

Liverpool to win
The title-chasing Reds are a perfect seven from seven in the Premier League at Anfield and they should account for a depleted United.

Mohamed Salah to score at any time
The Egyptian will be fresh having sat out in midweek and he has scored 12 goals in as many appearances against United, netting in each of their last six meetings.

Luke Shaw to be booked
The United left-back has three bookings in eight appearances and will be in for a tough time up against Salah.

Price guide: 11-2
