Betting tips: Manchester United x Liverpool
Check out our predictions of the day for Manchester United vs. Liverpool
Prediction 1: Manchester United x Liverpool / Liverpool to win
United have played with grit and effort in their last few games, even though they lost to Manchester City. Their performance has been commendable, notwithstanding the scoreline. This match should end in a Liverpool victory since they have just been better than the Red Devils.
Prediction 2: Manchester United x Liverpool / Darwin Nunez Card
Even though cards aren’t usually expected in this tournament, Darwin Nunez is worth a chance to be shown a card at the pricing available. He has eleven in 43 appearances for Liverpool this campaign.
The striker is the third-most cynical player in the Premier League with eight. Even though he has only played in two matches for Liverpool vs Manchester United, he received a yellow card in the first half of their most recent game.
While not often expected of a lead, Nunez finds himself mired in an average of 0.8 tackles and fouls per game.
Despite Harry Maguire’s absence from United’s last two matches, he may make a triumphant comeback on Sunday, setting up a fascinating showdown with Nunez.
Prediction 3: Manchester United x Liverpool / Van Dijk to score anytime
A key player for Liverpool in their match against Manchester City in the last premier league match was Virgil van Dijk, who helped minimize Haaland’s shot. As a vital member of the club’s second-best Premier League defense, Van Dijk has seen more play this season. United has allowed more shots from dead-ball situations and is among the poorest teams in defending set pieces, with an average of 0.10 goals per 90 minutes. Van Dijk should be able to find the net in this one.
