⚽ Round: Gameweek 3
🆚 Fixture: Manchester United vs Liverpool
🏟 Venue: Old Trafford, Manchester
🗓 Date: Monday, 22 August 2022
🕗 Start Time: 8:00 pm BST
Match Preview:
The Red Devils are the troubled side in the Premier League this season. They are yet to claim a point from their first two games, sitting right at the bottom.
Manchester United were thrashed by Brentford with 4-0 goals inside the first half last week, following their 2-1 home defeat against Brighton in the season opener.
On the other hand, Juergen Klopp’s men are winless in their first two games. Liverpool drew 2-2 with Fulham in their season opener before a 1-1 tie with Crystal Palace at Anfield last Monday.
After Darwin Nunez was sent off for headbutting Palace defender Andersen, Luiz Diaz helped the 10-man side to steal a point on the night. The injury-ravaged Merseyside Reds are in grave trouble as the Uruguayan has been suspended for three games, starting with Old Trafford.
Team News and Probable Lineup:
Manchester United Team News:
Anthony Martial has returned to training after missing the first two games. He could play in the second half.
Victor Lindelof is unavailable due to injury. New signing Lisandro Martinez could start at the center of the defense against Liverpool. The Argentine was subbed off before the second half against Brentford last week.
Fans can wait to see their latest signing Casemiro from Real Madrid.
Manchester United Probable Lineup:
(4-2-3-1): De Gea; Dalot, Maguire, Martinez, Malacia; Eriksen, McTominay; Sancho, Bruno, Rashford; Cristiano Ronaldo
Liverpool Team News:
Juergen Klopp’s side is ravaged by injuries and suspension. Darwin Nunez will be out for three games, starting with Monday. However, Firmino has recovered reportedly and could start.
Thiago Alcantara, Joel Matip, Ibrahima Konate, and Diogo Jota all are unavailable due to injuries.
Liverpool Probable Lineup:
(4-3-3): Alisson; Trent, Phillips, Van Dijk, Robertson; Elliot, Fabinho, Henderson; Salah, Firmino, Diaz
Manchester United vs Liverpool Prediction:
Manchester United and Liverpool are both winless this season and will look to bag three points.
Erik ten Hag’s men are in a concerning form. They are coming off a 0-4 thrashing defeat against Brentford. However, ten Hag believes his men would come back strongly, and the return of Anthony Martial could propel that.
On the other hand, Liverpool’s squad is alarmingly shortened by injuries. All eyes will be on the Egyptian king Mohamed Salah. If Salah scores a goal tonight, he will be the only Liverpool player to reach 10 goals against Manchester United in all comps.
The last two head-to-head meetings in the Premier League had been nightmares for Manchester United, losing by 4-0, and 0-5 goals.
It should be a closer match than the recent meetings and United’s forms suggest. The Red Devils could find their feet at Old Trafford. Beating Liverpool on Monday could bring them on the right track. I say Manchester United 1-2 Liverpool.
