Manchester United vs Liverpool Predicted lineup, betting tips, odds, injury news, H2H, telecast | Premier League 2024-25

The Red Devils played a four-goal thriller against the Reds last time out. 

Manchester United were unfortunate to lose their previous match against Brighton & Hove Albion after conceding a late goal from Joao Pedro. The Red Devils were moments away from securing a draw which would have been a fair result. The extra-time winner from the Seagulls completely changed the match’s outcome. Nevertheless, Erik ten Hag’s side can now focus on the Reds against whom they played a 2-2 thriller in April. 

Liverpool have made a perfect start to the new season, winning all their matches. They have secured these victories in impressive ways, gathering a 2-0 win over Ipswich Town and Brentford each. The Reds are the only side who have managed to keep clean sheets in the opening two matches, which highlights Arne Slot’s impact on this team. The players have efficiently adjusted to his philosophy and have so far caught the eye with their performance.

Players to Watch

Bruno Fernandes (⁠Manchester United)

The Red Devils skipper remains the most crucial player in the team. He can win matches for the team by providing goals and creating chances. Bruno Fernandes can also operate in several positions and knows how to play in half spaces which only benefits the team.

After initially starting the season in an unfamiliar striker role, he is likely going to play in the number ten role. There he thrives with his linkup play and driven shot from a distance, causing plenty of problems. 

Mohamed Salah (Liverpool)

The Liverpool record goal-scorer has started the new season in red-hot form after finding the net in the starting two matches. It showcases his goal-scoring prowess under the new management. This season looks to be another exciting one for the Egyptian who looks to fight for the Golden Boot by the end of the season. Mohamed Salah’s lethal finishing and ability to create chances for his teammates have made him a vital part of this Reds side.
