Liverpool - Manchester United predictions

We don’t expect Liverpool to have any issues beating Manchester United. The hosts are largely favoured by all the top bookmakers online and 1.62 might actually be a good-value bet to consider. The visitors are not to be underestimated but on this particular instance the home side are seen as clear winners.

The current perspective makes the situation crystal clear. Given the superiority of The Reds and the 5.33 odds given to The Red devils to win, it is evident that anything but a home win would be an incredible shock.

The Reds quickly lost momentum in the previous round against Chelsea and went home empty-handed in terms of points towards the Premier League title. Despite fairly favourable predictions, the end result was a narrow 2:1 away loss.

Man. Utd’s performance was quite impressive in their latest game against Sunderland. The 2:0 victory itself may have been predictable considering they were the hosts in a favourable matchup, but the overwhelming success which they achieved it is worth noting.

Our confidence that Manchester United will manage to hold their composure in an away game is shaky. They have over 5 concessions on record in their latest 3 visiting games alone.

With a solid 2nd position on the Premier League table, Liverpool are on their way to the Champions League qualification. They still have a long road to get there, though, and will need to keep the momentum going.

Though they’re in the upper part of the Premier League table, Manchester United are heading into dire straits on this Sunday. Moreover, we’re only at round 8 of this season’s competition. On the bright side, this also means that they have more than enough time to earn the 3 points needed for a Europa qualification, even if they lose this match.

Looking back at the recent history of clashes between these two teams, the most notable example is a sound defeat Manchester Utd suffered last season. Partly thanks to the considerable goal difference Liverpool secured in that match, they’re considered favourites to win the match on Sunday.

This Sunday, both teams will have a full roster available to them, thanks to the absence of injuries or suspensions.

If you’re feeling confident, a Draw/Home wager in the Half Time/Full Time market is the way to go. It’s a fairly risky move, but likely the best way to get some value out of the match this Sunday.
