Comments and predictions for Man Utd vs Liverpool: The Red Devils will be disappointed

Latest Man Utd vs Liverpool squad information

Injuries added to Manchester United's woes in last week's defeat to Brighton, with Mason Mount forced off with a thigh injury in the first half and expected to miss several games.

Mount joins a United injury list that already includes Leny Yoro (foot), Rasmus Hojlund (hamstring), Tyrell Malacia (knee), Luke Shaw (calf) and Victor Lindelof (toe). His absence paves the way for Zirkzee to make his full debut, while Bruno Fernandes takes the No.10 role.

The Red Devils have signed Manuel Ugarte from Paris Saint-Germain, but due to not registering before the deadline, Ugarte is unavailable for Sunday.

Liverpool have completed the signing of Federico Chiesa from Juventus for £10m, but due to recent fitness issues he is unlikely to make his debut at Old Trafford unless there is a late injury.

Curtis Jones is currently a doubt with a groin injury and did not train on Friday, while Virgil van Dijk will make his 200th Premier League appearance for the club.

Latest Man Utd vs Liverpool expected lineup

Manchester United:

Onana; Mazraoui, De Ligt, Martinez, Dalot; Mainoo, Casemiro; Diallo, Fernandes, Garnacho; Zirkzee

Liverpool:

Alisson; Alexander-Arnold, Konate, Van Dijk, Robertson; Mac Allister, Gravenberch; Salah, Szoboszlai, Diaz; Jota

Latest Man Utd vs Liverpool football prediction

Eight days after an unconvincing win over Fulham, where Joshua Zirkzee quickly became a hero for Manchester United, the new signing became a villain at the Amex. Goals from Danny Welbeck and Joao Pedro gave Brighton a 2-1 win, while Alejandro Garnacho's strike was ruled out for Zirkzee's final touch while offside.

Manchester United suffered their second defeat in three competitive games this season, after losing on penalties to Manchester City in the Community Shield. September has not been a memorable month for the Red Devils either, having lost 13 of their 35 Premier League games since Sir Alex Ferguson left the club, with only May (14) seeing more defeats.

Liverpool will face Man United with the chance to make it three consecutive home wins for the first time since August 2023, after beating Newcastle United at the end of last season. Slot will be playing his first competitive game against the English champions, and history is not on his side, with no Liverpool manager winning his first competitive game against Man United since Bob Paisley in 1975.

Liverpool have won their last two games 2-0 against Ipswich Town and Brentford, with Luis Diaz and Mohamed Salah on target. While they need to improve their first-half form, Liverpool have the highest expected goals in the Premier League this season, which could prove problematic for a Man United side struggling defensively.

While a 3-0 win in pre-season is not an accurate indicator, Liverpool are capable of continuing to score and overcome the Man United defence at Old Trafford.
