Key Points to Consider

Home & Away: Liverpool is yet to lose this season in EPL and have won all 11 of their games at home. ManU have lost two in five, winning the other three. Their away form is bad, though, with only 3 wins, 3 draws and five losses in 11 road games.

Injuries: League leading Liverpool have been lucky with barely any injuries to key players. Manchester United not so much. They’re likely without 14-goal-scorer Marcus Rashford, while Paul Pogba remains sidelined as well.

Head-to-Head: Rarely has this head-to-head favored the other team this harshly. However, United held Liverpool to 1-1 draw on October 20th at Old Trafford.
