Liverpool vs Manchester United: 3 Things To Expect From The Big Game

Liverpool vs Manchester United

One of the fiercest rivalries of the world resumes when 9th placed Liverpool host 6th placed Manchester United on Sunday. With a mere 3 points differentiating the 2 teams, there is not much to differentiate between the two sides, even in the terms of quality on the pitch. However, the history of the fixture suggests otherwise with a number of games in the past featuring in the entertaining category for the antics on and off the pitch. The often ill-tempered game will be the match you shouldn’t miss and here are 3 things you can expect from the game.

1. Sending Off

Touted to be one of the most ill-tempered games in Europe, we can expect a sending off from the game. The game has been littered with a number of sending offs, the latest being the quick sending off former Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard for a stamp on Ander Herrera. Despite the lack of apparent quality on the pitch, there will be no holding back and we expect players to be flying into tackles. All in all, we can expect at least one player to be sent off during the game.
