Witness the intense clash between Manchester United and Liverpool in a much-anticipated Super Sunday showdown in the Premier League this weekend.
Arne Slot, the new manager of Liverpool, comes to Old Trafford with momentum after securing consecutive 2-0 victories at the start of his tenure. A win at Old Trafford could spark excitement in the early stages of his leadership.
Since Erik ten Hag’s arrival at Old Trafford, he has generally had the upper hand in this rivalry. Nonetheless, Manchester United has faced significant defeats against Liverpool in the past, including 7-0, 5-0, and 4-0 losses.
Ten Hag and Slot have a history from their time in Dutch football. Despite recent setbacks, Manchester United can boast victory over Liverpool twice at home in the FA Cup and Premier League last season.
