Yes, as the host of course Liverpool has the potential to play with its best performance, and indeed last season Liverpool's ranking was below Manchester United. At that time Liverpool was in 5th place with 67 points, while Manchester United was in 3rd place with 75 points, but of course we don't know what developments will happen and in my opinion if Erik ten Hag can make a good strategy then it is very possible that Manchester United will increase the position and the possibility of moving up the rankings. But of course Liverpool will maintain their current position and will fight as hard as they can to achieve their dreams and improve last season's performance by becoming champions this season.
Yes, at that time I also didn't expect that Manchester United would lose with a score of 7-0 and at that time C. Gakpo's performance was very good and Mohamed Salah also scored a good goal, but in my opinion Manchester United definitely didn't. don't want to repeat mistakes like before. but if Liverpool lose at Anfield stadium they will definitely be embarrassed.
I think Jurgen Klopp will definitely not take this match lightly because usually matches are always full of surprises, and Erik Ten Hag certainly doesn't want to see his men lose.
Manchester United is indeed in a very bad state but the matches between these two teams are always under high tension because this is about rivalry and also prestige, Liverpool's chances are quite big but it won't be easy, this is a match between two teams that have a long history in the Premier League.
No team will think this is an easy match, Manchester United wants to recover from its downturn and Liverpool, who are currently at the top of the standings, wants to continue to maintain their consistency.
