Paul Merson believes that Liverpool will do well to beat Manchester United at Old Trafford in the type of game which will suit the hosts.
The two arch-rivals come into Sunday’s Premier League clash in vastly different circumstances. While the Reds are in red-hot form following a strong start to the season, United have endured a run of criticism.
They may have come from behind to beat Atalanta on Wednesday, but Gary Neville has voiced concerns about his former side when out of possession.
Indeed, he looked to Liverpool for a perfect example of how a team should work without the ball.
Following a landmark win at Atletico Madrid, they therefore look the favourites to win on Sunday.
