Liverpool vs Manchester United Prediction 17 January 2021

The main match of the nineteenth round of the Premier League, in which Liverpool and Manchester United will meet is scheduled on Sunday.

Back in mid-December, Liverpool took care of Tottenham (2:1) and Crystal Palace (7:0), after which they stumbled in duels with West Bromwich (1:1), Newcastle United (0:0) and Southampton (0:1). Thus, Klopp's wards lost their leadership in the standings, dropping to second place with 33 points and a goal difference of 37:21.

At the same time, Manchester United gained an incredible pace, thanks to which they climbed to first place with 36 points in the asset and statistics of accurate shots of 34:24. Prior to the match, the Red Devils dealt with Burnley (1:0), Aston Villa (2:1), Wolverhampton (1:0) and Leeds (6:2), and only with Leicester was a 2:2 draw.

The matches of the Premier League leaders this season almost always do not give us a huge number of goals scored. We think that this trend will continue here, because the playing tone of Liverpool and Manchester United is far from ideal.
