Liverpool Vs Manchester United: Talking Tactics

Jurgen Klopp will set his side up in a 4-3-3 formation and could instruct his men to dominate the ball and orchestrate enough clear-cut chances to win this contest.

Erik ten Hag will opt for the 4-2-3-1 formation and is expected to ask his players to sit deep and soak in all the pressure before trying to catch the home team off-guard on the counter.

Key Men

Liverpool

Mohamed Salah and Darwin Nunez will have to carry most of the goal-scoring workload for the Reds in the final third. Klopp will rely on the energy and dynamism of Dominik Szoboszlai and Ryan Graveneberch to make a difference at the centre of the park.

Manchester United

Andre Onana would have to make a few good saves if Man United are to keep things solid at the back this weekend. The defensive performance of Jonny Evans and Raphael Varane could go a long way in determining the fate of this contest.
