Manchester United vs Liverpool
March 22, 2008
23/3- Manchester United get prepared this weekend to play one of the toughest matches of this season, the clash between Manchester United and Liverpool should be a blockbuster that would keep both the supporters on the edge of their seats. Manchester United would be playing at home and that would be an advantage but if we look at the form of both the teams in recent matches be it in EPL or the Champions League action both have performed exceedingly well consistently. While Man U are placed on the top of the charts, Liverpool currently occupy the fourth spot. In the last 10 matches played Liverpool have had 8 wins a single loss and a single draw while Man U have 7 wins, 2 draws and a single loss. Hence on current form both teams can said to be on par, the last time both these teams faced off was earlier this season when Man U had defeated Liverpool 0-1, in an away tie. Also the overall head to head record for the past 15 years falls in favour of the team from Old Trafford as they have won 16 of the 29 matches while Liverpool have managed to win 7 matches only. Manchester United will be highly confident about their chances as they come into the match after a 2-0 win against Bolton last week in a home tie, they are also 3 points clear of Arsenal already and a win here would be really helpful as the Gunners would be facing a tough opponent in Chelsea as well. Christiano Ronaldo has scored a record number of goals for the side this season and the fans would like to see him net a goal this weekend as well. Liverpool on the other hand would want to take revenge of the loss earlier this season at home and if they can do that, things at the top of the table become very interesting. Prediction: 0-1, Liverpool win
