The English Premier League (EPL) is set for a "Double Red Clash", with table-toppers Liverpool hosting the "Red Devils" Manchester United. "The Reds have been winning the league recently, and are looking strong. On the other hand, the Red Devils are just out of the UEFA Europa League and have suffered a loss of troops, plus their visits to the Anfield Stadium have not been running well in recent years.

Liverpool's recent run of success has seen them win four and draw one of their last five league matches. Apart from a 1-1 draw with Manchester City, which broke their 23-game home winning streak, they have been resilient against Fulham and Crystal Palace as they both turned back the clock late in the game to win. Ace Mohamed Sana scored the equalizer against Crystal Palace, his 200th career goal for the Reds and 11th in the league this season.
On the other hand, Manchester United is having a tough time, losing three of their last four matches in all competitions. Not only did they suffer a 3-egg defeat at home to Gonemouth in their last league match, which became the biggest home defeat against a lower-ranked team in the history of the Premier League, but they also suffered a 0-1 defeat against Bayern Munich in Group A of the UEFA Europa League a couple of days ago, which made their exit from the UEFA Europa League a morale-busting experience. In that match, the main force of the defense, Harry Maguire, was injured, and the core of the midfield and the captain, Bono Fernandes, had to sit on the football team, so the lineup is in a state of disarray.
