Liverpool, Recent FormHaving secured a 2-1 away win against Crystal Palace in their latest league match, Liverpool will have a positive feeling ahead of this match. Their share of possession in that meeting was 76%, while racking up 14 shots along the way, 2 of which were on target, in contrast to Crystal Palace, who had 8 shots on goal with 4 on target.
Their boss Jürgen Klopp has every reason to be happy with his side's attacking prowess of late, which has seen them net 13 goals in their last 6 matches; however, they may have some work to do in defence with 6 goals conceded across those matches.

With 7 league goals in 6 games at home in Anfield, Mohamed Salah will be feeling confident about hitting the net again in this home encounter.
Manchester United, Recent FormOn the back of a tough 3-0 home defeat by Bournemouth, Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag will have some work to do to get his team in a confident mindset.

ten Hag will be reasonably pleased with his team's performances in front of goal, having scored 7 goals in their last 6 games, but will want to tighten up his defence with 5 goals conceded in the same period. In their last 6 away games, they have scored in 5 and kept a clean sheet in 3.
