Liverpool are set to host Manchester United at Anfield in the Premier League. While the table-toppers are enjoying a great form, the latter side is struggling badly to find the best XI under the new coach Ruben Amorim. As usual the highly-anticipated clash is expected to deliver a lot of drama and actions.
Liverpool vs Manchester United: Talking Tactics
Arne Slot should field an usual 4-2-3-1 lineup where he will be pushing more men in the final third. They will try to win battles in the midfield and then let their electrifying wingers do their job.
Ruben Amorim is unlikely to alter his three-man backline. Hence, expect a 3-4-3 formation from the Red Devils to overload the midfield and outnumber the opponents. However, they need to be alert and must cover the large spaces they leave behind to exploit.
Liverpool
Joe Gomez (hamstring) is unavailable while Ibrahima Konate (knee) and Conor Bradley (thigh) have just returned from injuries and will not start the game.
Liverpool Predicted XI
Alisson; Alexander-Arnold, Quansah, Van Dijk, Robertson; Gravenberch, Mac Allister; Salah, Szoboszlai, Gakpo; Diaz
Manchester United
Marcus Rashford (illness), Mason Mount (thigh), Victor Lindelof (unspecified) and Luke Shaw (calf) are all sidelined.
Manchester United Predicted XI
Onana; Yoro, Maguire, Martinez; Mazraoui, Mainoo, Ugarte, Dalot; Diallo, Fernandes; Hojlund
Key Men
Liverpool
Trent Alexander-Arnold can be a difference maker in both aspects of the game while Mohamed Salah is obviously a threat for the opposition.
Manchester United
Kobbie Mainoo can contribute a lot in the middle of the park and skipper Bruno Fernandes needs to deliver this time to help his side.
