Ten Hag said that now they will be able to fully concentrate on the Premier League, but whether this will help them beat Liverpool, I doubt it. I remember the last game between these teams, which by the way was also at Anfield, then Liverpool beat Manchester United 7:0. Perhaps this time they will be able to avoid such a defeat, but United's defense is still poor and they are likely to concede a couple of goals. Liverpool are fighting for the championship, frankly speaking they could now have an even greater advantage if not for the refereeing errors, but despite this they are showing how ready they are to fight this season.
Last season when they received that trashing at the hands of Liverpool, they(Liverpool) were not even that strong that was why the result came as a shock to fans and now, the reverse is the case. Many of Man UTD's players will not be available; Bruno Fernandes, Harry Maguire, Luke Shaw, Casemiro, Lisandro Martinez, all these are players that would miss that action at Anfield and I'm more concerned for Erik's team. It leaves little to the imagination on how the game will turn out on Sunday but at the same time, the game could end up being in the favor of Man UTD despite them lacking most of their first eleven, we shouldn't be surprised to see Man UTD playing a better football than Liverpool and securing all 3 point, imagine Liverpool playing against Crystal Palace, if not for the red card they would have lost that game so I feel Man UTD can do better.
