Manchester United and Liverpool will face each other in the Premier League this afternoon.
Michael Owen has predicted on Betvictor.com that the match between Manchester United and Liverpool this weekend will end in a draw.
United will take on bitter rivals Liverpool at Old Trafford in the Premier League on Sunday afternoon.
Owen, who played for both the Red Devils and the Reds, has predicted the game to end in a draw.
“What a mouth-watering clash to look forward to! Liverpool have lost 11 of their last 14 PL visits to OT but I think we will see a different Reds side to the one who lost at St Mary’s earlier in the week,” Owen wrote on Betvictor.com.
“I hope and expect to see goals, tackles and everything you would wish to see from these two great clubs, but when the dust has settled perhaps their fellow title challengers will be the only winners from the game.”
A footnote added: “Michael’s recommendation: Game to finish in a scoring draw at 15/4.”
Newcastle United legend Alan Shearer has also given his thoughts on the match, stating that Liverpool will have to improve in order to win against United.
Jurgen Klopp’s side will head into the game on the back of a 1-0 defeat to Premier League rivals Southampton away from home at St. Mary’s Stadium in the first leg of the EFL Cup semi-final tie.
“Southampton were much the better side, so they’ll be looking to improve massively at Old Trafford on Sunday, and they’ll have to be otherwise they’ll take a beating like they did [in the EFL Cup],” Shearer wrote about Liverpool on Coral.co.uk.
Liverpool’s recent form has been far from impressive. The Merseyside outfit have failed to win any of their last three matches in all competitions, including the FA Cup third-round tie against Plymouth Argyle at Anfield.
However, the Reds do tend to raise their game against big teams, and one suspects that the players will be determined to show what they are capable of against United.
