Free Manchester United vs Liverpool EPL Prediction:
Coming into this matchup, both Manchester and Liverpool have done an excellent job at generating possessions in the attacking area of the field. So far, Manchester United is 5th in attacking area touches, while Liverpool ranks 2nd. Heading into this game, something has to give, as both the Liverpool and Manchester United rank well in generated attacking possessions and attacking possessions allowed. So far Liverpool has given up 3126 possessions near the goal (2nd) compared to Manchester at 7th.
This matchup features two excellent offensive units, as they apply heavy pressure to their opponent’s defense. However, Liverpool enters this matchup as a far superior defensive unit. Despite having a save percentage only near the league average, Liverpool plays excellent team defense, making it tough for their opponents to even generate scoring chances. Even though Manchester United is an above averge group at generating shots, I expect them to struggle throughout this match. I like Liverpool on the moneyline.
