Liverpool enter Old Trafford with revenge on their mind as they take on Manchester United with the Premier League title race in full swing heading into the season’s final stretch.
With eight games left, anyone from Liverpool, Arsenal or Manchester City has a chance of winning the title. In the closest Premier League title race in years, the Reds cannot afford a single slip-up the rest of the way knowing that the two clubs hot on their heels will be ruthless in taking advantage.
That won’t stop the Reds from remembering what happened here just two weeks ago, when Liverpool saw the lead slip away in the dying seconds of their FA Cup quarter-final match as Man United completed a dramatic late comeback to win 4 -3 and advance to Wembley.
Manchester United are vulnerable at the moment, having lost in epic fashion against Chelsea in midweek despite turning a 2-0 first-half deficit into a 3-2 lead early in the match. It was a horrible moment in the club’s overall poor season, and detrimental to their quest for any sort of European qualification next season amid a crowded top half of the table.

Thursday’s disastrous defeat to Chelsea is the kind of result that can have lasting effects on a club, and if there is any Premier League team vulnerable to being beaten twice it is Man United. Liverpool didn’t look exceptionally strong against Sheffield United, but they did their typical late game and managed to come away with a multi-goal victory in the end.
Old Trafford has been a house of horrors for Jurgen Klopp: despite clearly proving to be the better team in recent years in terms of standings, the Reds have emerged victorious in just two of their last 12 visits to United’s hallowed ground. , dating back to the start of the 2014/15 season, while the Red Devils have won six. However, it is difficult to believe that this Man United team could be capable of derailing Liverpool’s title challenge, regardless of recent history.
