Sunday, 1st September 2024- 4:00pm: Manchester UTD v Liverpool
Manchester UTD v Liverpool Betting Preview
Manchester United kick-started the season with a late but deserved 1-0 victory over Fulham, courtesy of a goal scored by summer signing Joshua Zirkzee. However, they were brought back down to earth last weekend, suffering a 2-1 defeat at the hands of Brighton. They also faced Liverpool in a pre-season friendly and were soundly beaten 3-0.
Liverpool head to Old Trafford having claimed back-to-back 2-0 wins over Brentford and Ipswich Town, with Mohamed Salah scoring once in each win, alongside goals from fellow forwards Diogo Jota and Luis Diaz. The Reds have played brilliant football, although it should be taking into account that their opponents were not Top 10 contenders. No team has had more shots than Arne Slot's men in the first two gameweeks (37), while the Reds also have the highest expected goals total (5.3) and the lowest expected goals against total (1.0) so far.
Manchester United are unbeaten in their last three home games against Liverpool (W1, D2). Both league meetings between these sides last season finished as draws. They also met in the quarter-finals of the FA Cup and United progressed with a 4-3 win after extra-time, going on to win the competition. Arne Slot and Erik ten Hag have met four times as opposing managers in the Dutch Eredivisie, with each boss claiming two wins.

Probable Line-Ups
Manchester United (4-2-3-1): Onana; Mazraoui, De Ligt, Martinez, Dalot; Mainoo, Casemiro; Rashford, Fernandes, Garnacho; Zirkzee
Mason Mount has joined Manchester United’s injured list after sustaining a hamstring injury during last week’s defeat at Brighton. This means that Bruno Fernandes will not play anymore as false nine, and Joshua Zirkzee will feature from the off. Scott McTominay has move to Napoli, while new signing Manuel Ugarte was not registered by 12pm on deadline day, and he will be unable to make his first appearance for the club on Sunday. Alejandro Garnacho could also enter the XI. Noussair Mazraoui is expected to continue at right-back with Diogo Dalot deployed at left-back in the opening games of the season. Rasmus Hojlund, Victor Lindelof, Luke Shaw, Leny Yoro and Tyrell Malacia remain unavailable.
Liverpool (4-3-3): Alisson; Alexander-Arnold, Konate, Van Dijk, Robertson; Mac Allister, Gravenberch, Szoboszlai; Salah, Diaz, Jota
Liverpool have a relatively clean bill of health with Curtis Jones their only doubt after he missed training this week. New signing Federico Chiesa trained with his new team-mates on Friday but may have to wait a little longer to make his Liverpool debut. Ibrahima Konate should continue at centre-back for Liverpool amid Jarell Quansah’s injury worry. The front trio will likely remain unchanged, with Cody Gakpo and Darwin Nunez viable alternatives.
Our Manchester UTD v Liverpool Predictions
In the last few seasons this fixture has produced some harrowing results for the Red Devils, most notably a 7-0 mauling by Liverpool in March 2023. Anyway, the last three direct encounters all ended in a draw.
After losing to Brighton last weekend, Manchester United know a failure to get a result here risks puncturing any feel-good factor around the new campaign.
A draw will surely satisfy both sides - Liverpool would remain unbeaten and the Red Devils would avoid further embarassments.
As a result, we back the 2-2 draw in the Correct Score market. Joshua Zirkzee is our pick in the Anytime Goalscorer betting market.
