No doubt this game means a hell lot to all the RED DEVILS around the world. Not only that it is a crucial tie for United given the circumstances we are in. A win and we will be able to cut the difference to 8 points and hope Liverpool drop some in the coming months. Sounds unrealistic that we will have to fight for the TOP 4 places. But this is what separates us from all the other fans round the world. We have the belief in our team no matter what happens. These games hardly have a relevance on the playing XI as each and every individual will be fighting for glory.
United will definitely have an upper hand going into the match. More so because it will be played in front of their home crowd. Add to that the two consecutive victories which haven't been a regularity. So consistency will play an important role given Liverpool didn't have any fixtures to play this week.
The fixture in Anfield this season ended in the favour of Liverpool winning it 1-0 but United took revenge when they beat them 1-0 in the League Cup this season. The last five meetings also support United where they have won 4 times and lost just 1. So history has been with United the past couple of years.

But we really don't know if David Moyes would want to send in a perfect playing XI or will he choose a team keeping in mind the Champions League home fixture against Olympiacos at the Old Trafford. I think Moyes will play an unchanged XI which I think will be best suited given any player wouldn't want to rest before a crunch game. What is certain is that Juan Mata will play because he will be unavailable for the Champions League fixture. David Moyes was quoted as saying that Shinji Kagawa will be given more match time. So does that mean Januzaj will be rested and Kagawa might play.
PREDICTED LINE UP:
PREDICTED LINE UP:
David De Gea; Patrice Evra , Phil Jones, Chris Smalling , Rafael; Michael Carrick and Moruanne Fellaini , Juan Mata , Adnan Januzaj; Wayne Rooney; Robin Van Persie.
Mark Clattenburg will be the Refree for the game.
I think this line up to face Liverpool will be ideal. The centre Backs need to forge a partnership together given Vidic is going out and Rio about to retire. This team looks solid and looks formidable to get 3 points required against Liverpool. The biggest challenge will be to keep the Suarez and Sturridge partnership in check. So if Vidic and Ferdinand start United will automatically fall behind given the fact that the S$S partnership has pace,agility,power,stamina and goal scoring ability. Thus it is important that Jones and Smalling start. But I think either Vidic or Ferdinand will start given their vast experience and the hint Moyes threw by stating that they ( Vidic and Ferdinand , on the eve of WBA game) were being kept fresh for some massive games coming in future days.
In other news Manchester United signed a 10 year 600 million pound deal with shirt manufacturers NIKE. This will come as boost for the REDS who are looking at motivation.
More so many people believe that it is impossible for us to get into the TOP 4. Keeping in mind Liverpool's fixture I think we can. Liverpool have games like Chelsea Manchester City and obviously next week's 6 pointer to deal with. Most probably I think there is a lot at stake if United win the fixture. Hence it is massive for United.
Just keep calm and wait for Sunday. Hues and Cries are in store for sure.
