Since Sir Alex retired in 2013, MU has been struggling to regain the position of the team that dominated English football for many years.
MU under coach Solskjaer is having extremely difficult times.
On the contrary, Liverpool is living in the best days of the Premier League era.
In reality, the victories of coach Klopp and his team are not always convincing.
However, winning while not at their best is also a sign of champions and cannot be argued with Liverpool’s win of 17 consecutive matches.
Last season, defeat to Liverpool cost coach Mourinho his seat at Old Trafford.
Finishing is still one of MU’s biggest problems this season.
The challenge will be huge for Rashford, Martial, and James because their opponents, Liverpool, have the best defense in the Premier League so far with only 6 goals conceded after 8 rounds, an average of less than 1.
Regardless of the circumstances, the match between MU and Liverpool always makes the whole world interested because of the battles between these two teams throughout the history of English football.
