The Premier League is back with a bang following the international break with Man Utd travelling to Anfield for the lunchtime kickoff. This is without doubt one fixture that football fans across the globe look forward to; it is known for delivering action, talking points and is renowned for being a great advert for the game. All indications are that this one will be no different.
Liverpool come into the game with a fully fit squad and, despite some indifferent performances this season, they are a team who have made vast improvements since the return of the King. Luis ‘Torres who?’ Suarez has set the Premier League alight and Liverpool can now boast a squad that will believe they can again challenge at the top.
The current champions look to have gone up yet another gear and top of the league with 6 wins in 7 and having scored 24 in the process. They are a team that look refreshed and hungry for more success with the emergence of academy talent and youthful acquisitions that, so far this season, have shown they have the quality and temperament to deliver at the top level.
Form suggests this game will have goals. This fixture has gone over 2.5 twice in the last 3 seasons and this season Anfield has seen 2/3 go over while only the defensively brilliant Stoke have prevented all of Utd’s away games from going over. It has been well publicised that Man Utd have been more open at the back this season and an improved Liverpool side going forward will fancy scoring.
Many will be predicting both teams to score here today and that bet is currently available @ 1.67, but if you fancy one of the two teams to score twice there is plenty of value in Over 2.5 goals @ evens. Throw in the fire that comes with the games between these two rivals and the anticipated lightening pace Over 2.5 looks like a good bet.
Tip: Liverpool v Man Utd Over 2.5 goals @ evens.
