Man United v Liverpool betting tips: Can Ole’s Red Devils derail Liverpool’s title charge?

In Liverpool’s mid-week Champions League battle, they had to do without centre-back Virgil van Dijk through suspension, but they’ll welcome him back in for this match.

They’re likely to remain without van Dijk’s partner Dejan Lovren, as he’s out with a hamstring injury, while Joe Gomez isn’t expected to return for a while as he faces surgery on a broken ankle.

Key Battles

Mohamed Salah is battling it out for the Golden Boot again this season, and he’ll be looking to add to his 17 league goals.

It’s likely to be the task of Phil Jones, Victor Lindelof and Luke Shaw to keep him quiet, with Salah holding down the right wing and drifting centrally when he gets the chance.

Rashford scored twice in this fixture last season, and he’s been scoring regularly since being given the number nine role under Solskjaer.

Van Dijk will be keeping an eye on him in what could be a thrilling battle to watch. Rashford’s raw pace and skill could get the better of Van Dijk’s brute strength.

Paul Pogba is the creative spark United were missing in the previous meeting, and he’s been in impressive form. Whoever plays in the centre-midfield role for the Reds will need to limit the opportunities for the French World Cup winner.

Match Odds

On current form, it’s a very even match up. Manchester United have home advantage and that could play into their hands. They’re 2/1 to take the points.

But Liverpool are still favourites to get the win. They’re 13/10 to win and regain the lead in the title race.

With two attacking forces that can score for fun on their day, Both Teams to Score is 6/10. If you fancy a United win with both sides scoring, it’s 21/5. Liverpool are 16/5.
