Man United vs Liverpool

The Premier League features another edition of its biggest rivalry this week as Liverpool lock horns with Erik ten Hag's Manchester United outfit in a ...

Liverpool also have several issues to address at the moment and will go into this game with a heavily depleted squad. Liverpool are currently in 12th place in the Premier League standings and have largely failed to hit their stride this season. The Red Devils suffered a 4-0 defeat at the hands of Brentford in their previous game and will need to bounce back this week. The Red Devils have signed - Manchester United have won only one of their last 12 Premier League matches against Liverpool and are winless in their last eight games against their arch-rivals.

[Will you be placing a bet on this game? Jurgen Klopp will be concerned with his team's recent defensive record, having seen his men concede the first goal in four of their past five fixtures, a streak that has run since last season. The struggling English giants have not kept a clean sheet in their last seven matches, while Liverpool have conceded in each of their previous five games.

That's due to the availability of Joe Gomez who was struggling for fitness last time out. As such, the English defender could only impact the game from the ...

Manchester United host Liverpool in gameweek 3 of the Premier League on Monday. Here are the predicted lineup, injury and team news.

But this could be the perfect time for the World Cup winner to step up and properly introduce himself to the Manchester United fans. United will look to play on the counter-attack and defend as a unit. While during the 2020–21 season, the clash at Old Trafford had to be postponed due to a stadium invasion and subsequent pitch invasion by the Manchester United fans protesting against the Glazer ownership. Roberto Firmino could be back in the starting lineup after missing the last game as a precaution. Anthony Martial has returned to training but is still a major doubt ahead of the Liverpool clash. To add more flames to the fire, both clubs have had a horrible start to their 2022-23 Premier League campaign.

Two games. Two losses. Six goals conceded. Only one goal scored, and even that was an own-goal. Oh, and to top it off, United is in last place.

Is this the end for Cristiano Ronaldo at United? Is Lisandro Martinez the wrong signing at center back? Is Erik ten Hag, who joined from Ajax in the off-season, the wrong appointment as manager?

[Man United](https://www.thisisanfield.com/liverpool-fc/man-united) are in disarray ahead of Liverpool’s visit to Old Trafford, so why has their start to the season gone so horribly wrong?

We take a look at the projected lineups for both Manchester United and Liverpool ahead of a huge clash at Old Trafford, as both teams are struggling.

The back four picks itself and I’d bring in Joe Gomez for Nat Phillips after the latter made a poor mistake to allow Wilfried Zaha to score last time out. Erik ten Hag may stick to his guns and play an attacking 4-3-3 but I think he’d be silly to do that from the start. Look, Erik ten Hag is a man who loves to stick to his philosophy and way of playing out of the back in a 4-3-3 system. Marcus Rashford and Jadon Sancho could be sacrificed as United should go for a more pragmatic approach. Eriksen and Fernandes ahead of them will help them keep the ball, while up top I’d expect Cristiano Ronaldo to start given his penchant for pulling off incredible moments in big games.

That competition between Liverpool and Manchester United is always going to be there because we've won the league a few times, they've won the league a few times. They have top players, they have a top coach, so it's not going to be easy at all." "But the collective one is the Premier League and Champions League. "It could be a little bit of pressure if we're seven points behind City, but I think it's too early to think about that," Salah said. "I never say before the season [my individual goals]," Salah said. "Maybe the biggest two teams in England history-wise, so I think it's a special game for everybody.

You don't have to read it. You don't have to be fussed by it. If I say ‘no’ then we have a real mess.

Two sides yet to win a game meet on Monday night but Man United aren't in any position to cash in on Liverpool's vulnerabilities.

United were pitiful at Anfield in April and an early Liverpool goal is almost certain to send this game spiralling in the same direction. However, that won't matter against a United side riddled with problems and confidence issues. Liverpool are heavy 4/7 favourites to bag their first win of the campaign. Held by Fulham and Crystal Palace, Jurgen Klopp's side have been giving up some big chances to their opponents and that air of invincibility has just slipped for the time being. Such shameless attitudes could get Erik ten Hag the sack, just as they have with previous managers, while many actually believe United are genuinely in a relegation battle. For now, there is no end in sight to the United circus.
