Liverpool-Manchester United odds comparison: results, previous matches and intersections

When the points start to weigh and every game can potentially decide a league, you don’t look at anyone. And you also find yourself cheering on those who have historically been your rivals. Think of Manchester City: Liverpool are at -1 – after last weekend’s 2-2 between the two teams, who then faced each other in the FA Cup semi-final with a 3-2 for the Reds – and on Tuesday they receive at Anfield Manchester United. Pep Guardiola, the players and fans of the Citizens will cheer on Ronaldo and his teammates, who can instead aim for a Champions League qualification, a goal that is anything but obvious to reach: fourth place, presided over by Tottenham, is three away. points.

Other than favor to the enemies, therefore: the Red Devils must seek the company above all for themselves. We talk about business because all the numbers suggest that to win at Anfield you need an almost perfect performance, so much so that the bookmakers do not seem to believe in the possibility that Ralf Rangnick’s team will win at Jurgen Klopp’s home: Manchester United do not have never found all three points in their last five away games at Liverpool in the Premier League, with only one goal scored in all in this series. But the problem for United is that Anfield is a stronghold regardless of the opponent: in the last 10 Premier League games at home – in which they have arrived 30 points, full points – Liverpool have an aggregate result of 29-2.

It is a Liverpool in a state of grace: just think that the Reds have taken 32 points out of 36 available since they lost to Leicester on 28 December, in what remains the last defeat in the league. To complicate matters further in Rangnick in view of the Anfield match, there is the memory of what happened in the first leg – Liverpool’s 5-0 net at Old Trafford, when Solskjaer was still on the bench – and the two consecutive defeats away for the Red Devils, against City and Everton. Ronaldo’s hat-trick against Norwich has brought United back to success, but it will take much more to win at Anfield. The City, meanwhile, will cheer for the other Manchester.
