Prediction and Odds
- Moneyline lean: Draw (+300)
- Score prediction: Man United 0-0 Liverpool
After the initial matches of the season, we have yet to see the full capabilities of either team in the Premier League.
Liverpool has had convincing wins against weaker opponents, but can they break down a solid Man United defense? On the other hand, Manchester United has struggled in front of goal and will face a stern test against Liverpool.
Although these teams have produced high-scoring encounters in the past, recent stalemates suggest a tight defensive battle could be on the cards.
