Man United vs Liverpool prediction

Liverpool have shown resilience to keep on winning games despite their injury issues and Klopp's charges have huge momentum behind them for the campaign's final straight.

United's overall form has improved, with seven wins from their last nine games, but Liverpool should have the determination to edge this one — but it might need extra time or penalties.

Prediction: Man United 1-2 Liverpool (after extra time)
