So table topping Man Utd travel to the current champions Liverpool this weekend.
Early Team News
Liverpool ~ Still missing a lot of players Van Dijk, Gomez, Matip & Jota being the key ones.
Man Utd ~ Lindelof is a doubt and after last night Martial and Matic could also be doubts I'd say that having gone off injured there's little chance that Martial makes it.
In terms of form Utd are absolutely flying at the moment and our away form is unreal but we go to the best home team in the country unbeaten at Anfield in years in fact Mo Salah has never lost a league game at Anfield and he joined the club in 2017. Utd in the past had a good record of being the record breakers against the odds but this is something that happened 15 years ago not 15 minutes ago.
In terms of Ole's plans there's 2 big questions for him if everyone is fit who starts with Maguire at CB and does he start Pogba.
Utd's strength so often has been beating the press to open up space against better sides but even City stood off us this season will Klopp ask his team to do the same? Our counter attack threat is so strong will Klopp look to play it a bit safer or will he go on the front foot and back his style to work. Being the bullish guy he is I don't see him adapting to us and why should he.
Liverpool's form is rocky their attack has lost it's edge none of them are really in great form in front of goal and it's not been clicking for them in the way it did last season.
My Predicted XI
DDG
AWB Lindelof Maguire Shaw
McTominay Fred
James Bruno Rashford
Cavani
I don't think Pogba starts this one and I think Lindelof gets the nod at centre back alongside Maguire.
