The international break is gone, and Manchester United are ready to extend their unbeaten run in the premier league when they face Liverpool on Saturday at Anfield.
The red devils started the new term impressively and are currently sitting second in the premier league table behind league leaders Man City, with same points.
Considering that Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City are also flying hot this season and are likely to win their next premier league game, Jose Mourinho will want to do all it takes to get all three points from the Anfield meeting on Saturday. And though it might seem to be something tough to do, if we should consider that Liverpool are currently not having the best of their time at the moment, then we can agree an away win is actually possible.
Both Paul Pogba and Marouane Fellaini won’t be featuring in the game as a result of injuries, Nemanja Matic and Ander Herrera won’t make United fans miss the Frenchman and the Belgian during the game.
Herrera was named Man United’s Player of the Year last season but hasn’t been playing regularly this new term. The former Athletic Bilbao midfielder will obviously want to impress at Anfield so as to convince Jose Mourinho to include him back into the starting XI at Old Trafford.
This is the 3-4-3 formation the Portuguese tactician is likely to field at Liverpool, and he’s likely to get a favourable result after full-time.
