A clash between two teams. The teams with Champions aim. It is highly not probable that both clubs will finish top four in Premier League so this match seems to be extremely important for both the side. Manchester United will take on Liverpool in a weekend Premiere League clash at Anfield on Sunday. The match starts at 1:30 pm GMT.
Liverpool and Manchester United have both writhe fall from grace over last two years and this particular run in focused on a top four finish for both clubs.
Liverpool's squad is powerful it has been all season with the comebacks of both Steven Gerrard and Lucas Leiva. The Skipper of Liverpool has came into action last week, coming off bench in Monday night's 1-0 victory over Swansea, while Lucas Leiva returned to full training during the week. Also Flanagan and Enrique have also returned to full training, though they will not probable make the bench for the Sunday's match. Mario Balotelli also revolved from illness.
The Manchester have their fittest squad of the season, more an more positive trend from United club when correlated to record breaking number of Louis Van Gaal's men racked up for the first half of the season. Injuries to Robin Van Persie and James Wilson resulted in Wayne Rooney flowing back to play as a striker. Macros require a late fitness test, possibly one of most important issue selection
for United. The Argentinian defender has been United's important defender this season.
" It [the race for the top four] shall last to the end. .But a win helps - and it helps a lot. It helps to continue for Manchester United because after a victory you need another victory to confirm what you have done against Tottenham. It is always about the next game because Manchester United is not in a moment that we can say a victory or loss doesn't matter. We have to win and also after the game against Liverpool we have to win otherwise it shall be for nothing the victory against Liverpool. The Spurs result (United won 3-0) could be the 'major' one we have been looking for but then we have to continue and then we have to confirm against Liverpool the display against Tottenham because when we can confirm it then we show that we are there maybe. But its the most difficult ground for Manchester United I believe I have heard. It is not a very easy ground for United that's true so - but now I'm the manager here maybe we can change that. When we play like we have played against Tottenham then we have a great possibility to win." the Dutchman told reporters
Liverpool undefeated domestically since the 3-0 defeat by Manchester at Old Trafford on Dec and have taken 19 points from their last 7 games. Philippe Coutinho has been in alluring from and his movement will intimated Chris Smalling and Phil Jones however well they coped with Harry Kane last week.
United their best performance of Van Gaal era with Tottenham have given their confidence to take Liverpool on after getting defeat by Arsenal in FA cup. Van Gaal's tactics expertly exploited the space behind the wing backs in Liverpool's system at Old Trafford. Ashley Young and Daley Blind combined played well against Tottenham and could cause Liverpool's flagrant cross averse center backs problems with whipped centres for Marouane Fellani given how uncertain Emre looked defensively against Swansea.
