Reds to bounce back from recent woes

Liverpool headed into the international break following their worst week on the pitch so far under Arne Slot. Three defeats on the bounce suggest this much-changed team have not quite clicked yet.

However, all of those losses did come in tough away fixtures. They’ve won five out of five in all competitions at Anfield this term. Liverpool’s overall home win ratio under Slot stands at an impressive 81%.

That highlights the challenging task that still awaits Man United on Sunday. The Red Devils are winless on their travels, having lost their last two Premier League away games 3-0 and 3-1. They’ve not won at Anfield since the 2015/16 season.

Both teams to strike at Anfield

Five of the last six matches involving Liverpool have seen both teams score, while 73% of their fixtures this term have produced goals at each end. That suggests their defence does have its vulnerabilities, although they’ve scored in all of their domestic fixtures.

There’s certainly reason to believe Man United can get on the scoresheet at Anfield. Ruben Amorim’s team have created 13.6 xG in the Premier League this term, which is more than any other team.

After a slow start, United’s new striker Benjamin Sesko has scored in each of his last two matches. The Slovenian will be more confident as a result, and that suggests the visitors are going to be more clinical in front of goal.

Expect plenty of throw-ins

These two teams both rank in the top seven in the Premier League for throw-ins taken so far this season. Struggling Wolves lead the way on 22.7 per 90 minutes, but these two giants of English football aren’t far behind.

Liverpool have taken 21.6 throw-ins per match on average. That sees them rank fourth in the English top flight, with Newcastle and Everton also ahead of them. Meanwhile, Man United rank seventh on 20.3.

That means both sides could afford to underperform their averages in Sunday’s showdown, and we still expect at least 34 throw-ins to be taken in total.

Feisty affair likely in a high-stakes clash

Aside from the fierce rivalry, the stakes are high for both teams on Sunday in terms of their ambitions this season.

The break has given Liverpool the chance to reset, but a fourth straight loss would suggest Slot has a major problem on his hands. In the opposing camp, Amorim is under real pressure to turn things around, as he approaches one year in the job.

The last five competitive meetings have produced 30 yellow cards and two reds. Each of the last three clashes between the clubs at Anfield have ended with both teams receiving at least two cards.

There were six yellows shown when the sides played out a 2-2 draw in this fixture last term. Meanwhile, five yellows were issued when Liverpool won 3-0 at Old Trafford last September.

Both sides head into this encounter with a point to prove, and there’s certainly the potential for tensions to boil over.
