Manchester United vs. Liverpool match analysis

Will MU win sixth match in a row? Liverpool in crisis will try to break through at Old Trafford.

Disastrous scores in Champions League  and very weak ones in Premier League are not optimistic before match against Manchester United. Liverpool isn’t in a good shape, and attackers do not guarantee good score. It is not the same team as in previous season and 9th place after 15 rounds shows current quality of the team. It is exactly the opposite in case of Red Devils. Although the beginning of the season was very weak, work of Louis Van Gall can be seen. MU is going up in the league table, it has won recen 5 matches. What is important Robin Van Persie returns to high disposition which was the minimum in a match against Southampton where they scored 2 goals.

Bookmakers see home team as a favourite and pay 1,80 for a win, 3,80 for draw and 4,75 for Red’s win. In my opinion odds offered for home team win is attractive even though some decline can be noticed. I bet on the win of Red Devils stake 2/10.
