Handicap Liverpool (-1) • 1.87

These games in the past I would always back Mourinho but, for the life of me, I honestly don't have a clue what he's going to do here. He went with quite an attacking team against Man City and they got battered.
Pogba will not play and the only way I can see this developing into a positive for Mourinho is to park the bus and try and stay in the game and snatch something later on. The key for United is De Gea and Rashford and if they're at their best they may have a chance.
We do a lot of combined XIs and the biggest thing you can say about it is that I had two days to think about it and I couldn't get any Man Utd players into the Liverpool team. De Gea was the only one close but Alisson's been great so far, so even he'd miss out right now.
But I can't honestly see anything other than a Liverpool win. The way United have been playing the only way they could stop Liverpool would be to park the bus and get a 0-0 but I can't see that happening.

Manchester United or Draw • 2.65

Liverpool come into this game on the back of emotionally draining game against elite European opponents, though Klopp's team will be buoyant after securing their passage to the UCL stages. United arrive at Anfield with a record of being unbeaten in the last 4 visits including back to back 0-0 draws, & 3 wins in the last 6. Liverpool have struggled to score, failing to score in the last 3 derbies and failing to net more than over 1.5 goals. United have been sloppy yet Mourinho's team can score on the road, 6/8 of their PL games have seen them net over 1.5 goals.
Form as well as style of play are contrasting to say the least. No love lost between these two sides. Under pressure Jose I can see parking the bus.
Mourinho can surprise us, why not do it again? All against him

Handicap Liverpool (-1) • 1.9

I'd be shocked if Liverpool don't get a result, probably like the rest of the nation! I watched United on Wednesday night, and oh my God.
They play under pressure week in, week out. You wouldn't understand the pressure they are playing under as Manchester United players. They then go to Valencia, a chance for them to express themselves, with nothing to lose, against nowhere near one of the best Spanish teams in the league.
Go and express yourselves! And what happened? Oh my God.
I just cannot see where United win this football match. But that isn't to say there isn't huge pressure on Liverpool too, as they have to stay in front. It's a different pressure now they are top.

Liverpool Win • 1.56

La qualification pour les huitièmes de finale de la Ligue des Champions maintenant acquise, Liverpool et Manchester United doivent se consacrer entièrement à la Premier League. Les enjeux ne manquent pas, Liverpool voudra à tout prix faire ***ctifier son excellente opération de la journée précédente à l'occasion de laquelle les pensionnaires d'Anfield s'étaient accaparé de la première place du championnat, tandis que Manchester United voudra amorcer sa lente ascension et espérer réduire l'écart qui s'est crée avec le Big Five. Liverpool, meilleur sur le papier, devrait rendre la tâche des Mancuniens bien compliquée. Anfield pourrait bien continuer à guider les Reds sur le bon chemin.
