In the main quarter-final match of the FA Cup, Manchester United will host Liverpool at Old Trafford. The match prediction has been prepared by DailySports analysts.
Manchester United
Under Erik ten Hag's management, the team remains in sixth place in the Premier League standings, with very slim chances of finishing in the Champions League zone, as they are currently 8 points behind Aston Villa. Catching up with them in the remaining 10 rounds will be very challenging. Over the weekend, Manchester United managed to defeat Everton (2-0), breaking a two-match losing streak. However, the progress of the Red Devils compared to the start of the season is evident. In the FA Cup Round of 16, Manchester United eliminated Nottingham Forest (1-0).
Liverpool
Liverpool is in incredible form at the moment. Under Jurgen Klopp's leadership, they thrashed Prague's Sparta 6-1 in the second leg of the Europa League Round of 16. In the two legs combined, Liverpool won 11-2. In the Premier League, Liverpool is in second place, narrowly trailing behind Arsenal on additional metrics only. Over the weekend, the Reds played a fiery 1-1 draw against Manchester City, where they had excellent chances in the second half to snatch victory. All this despite significant squad problems.
