THE PREDICTION

A Newcastle equaliser deep into second half stoppage time saw Liverpool held to a 1-1 draw at by the Magpies at Anfield in their most recent Premier League game. Jurgen Klopp’s side have now failed to win their last two Premier League matches, drawing each of them and with their hopes of finishing within the Champions League places starting to fade away, the Reds desperately need a victory at Old Trafford against their bitter rivals Man Utd. The hosts come into this one second in the table and having lost just once in their last 21 games in all competitions, emphasising the magnitude of the task Liverpool have on their hands here. Such is the importance of this match from a supporter’s perspective considering the huge rivalry between the two sides, a tentative contest may be on the cards with neither willing to show their hand early on, in full knowledge of the threat their opponent poses on the counter attack. The last four Premier League fixtures between Man Utd and Liverpool have seen under 2.5 goals scored over the course of 90 minutes and the same outcome is to be backed in this match.

Tip: UNDER 2.5 GOALS
