Manchester United vs Liverpool prediction and betting tips on April 07, 2024
The centerpiece of the 32nd round of the English Premier League will be the Sunday match at "Old Trafford", where the local Manchester United will host Liverpool. Here's the prediction for this match from Dailysports experts.
Manchester United
The "Red Devils", it must be admitted, have had a disappointing season. At the moment, Man United occupies the sixth place in the league table, but the chances of catching up with Tottenham and securing a spot in the European competitions are practically non-existent. With eight matches remaining in the season, Erik ten Hag's team trails "Spurs" by nine points, and judging by Man United's recent results, bridging this gap seems unrealistic.
Midweek saw Man United visiting London to face Chelsea. Despite conceding two goals early in the match, the Mancunians found the strength to mount a comeback. However, in injury time, just when victory seemed within reach for the "Red Devils", the visitors conceded a penalty, and then conceded the decisive goal from a corner. This defeat marked the 12th for Man United in the Premier League. It's the worst result in the top ten alongside Newcastle.
Liverpool
The "Reds" capitalized on the draw between Manchester City and Arsenal and claimed the top spot in the Premier League. To achieve this, Jurgen Klopp's team secured a determined victory over Brighton with a score of 2-1. Following that, midweek, Liverpool hosted Sheffield United at home and secured a 3-1 victory.
Currently, Liverpool is ahead of Arsenal by two points and "City" by three. Compared to the previous weekend, the situation remains unchanged as all top-3 teams secured three points each. A true masterpiece in this match was scored by Argentine Alexis MacAllister. The player is having one of his best seasons, having scored five goals and provided 5 assists in Liverpool's last 10 matches.
Interesting Facts and Head-to-Head History
