One of the most historic matches in English football. Manchester United and Liverpool face each other on matchday 32 of the Premier League with more than just three points at stake, since both are in different fights to meet their objectives in this exciting end to the season. In this way, Ten Hag's team arrives in a difficult moment after the defeat of the last day against Chelsea, so they need to get back on their feet, and the calendar once again gives them a new opportunity to show that they still have options to fight qualification for the Europa League.
As far as Klopp's team is concerned, the team is in the perfect position. He depends on himself to be champion of the 2023/2024 Premier League, and although the pressure from the two teams that are chasing him just a few points behind will not be easy to manage, the reds They are in a very good state of form, so a victory in this match would be an important step in achieving the title.

The red devils They are still surprised to have lost the match against Chelsea, after winning in the 98th minute of the match. But this was not the only negative thing, and that is that Ten Hag has a serious problem in defense, with almost all of his troops having problems.
