Manchester United have plunged to the lowest depth of their modern history but the visit of rivals Liverpool as part of this weekend’s Premier League TV schedule offers them a chance for further embarrassment.
Erik ten Hag’s nightmare start to life as Red Devils boss continued in a 4-0 away defeat to Brentford last weekend – with all four conceded before the break.
There has been lots of talk about what the root of the problems at Old Trafford is following that dismal display, but the Dutchman and his team need to be fully focused on Monday night’s game against Liverpool.
The one bit of good news for Man Utd is that Jurgen Klopp’s side don’t arrive in particularly high spirits themselves. In fact, after draws against Fulham and Crystal Palace, a defeat would see Liverpool drop below the Red Devils in the table.
They will be without big-money summer signing Darwin Nunez after his straight red card against Palace while Klopp has likened the club’s recent injury problems to “like there was a witch in the building”.
Liverpool have slipped four points back from title rivals Man City already but Reds fans will forget about that quickly if they can pile more misery on the Old Trafford outfit.

Our prediction: Man Utd v Liverpool
The early-season struggles of these two great rivals are incomparable and rarely will Liverpool have arrived at Old Trafford as bigger favourites.
They’ve embarrassed Man Utd on a number of occasions in recent years and unless ten Hag’s side can raise their game significantly, there could be another one on the way.
It would be quite the game for things to finally click for the Red Devils but even with Klopp’s options limited due to injury and suspension, Red Devils fans aren’t likely to be holding out much hope.
Our prediction: Man Utd 0-2 Liverpool (9/1 at bet365)
