Liverpool vs. Manchester United - Both clubs struggling for goals image

Both Manchester United and Liverpool will be hoping to bounce back from defeat when they come face-to-face at Old Trafford on Saturday (12:30 p.m. ET, NBC).

Having suffered a 2-1 loss away to Swansea City before the international break, Louis Van Gaal’s men are -115 favorites at the Westgate Las Vegas SuperBook to get back to winning ways in this one. 

Meanwhile, the Reds were humbled 3-0 at home by West Ham last time out and are +340 to come out on top in this one. 

Two of the last three Premier League fixtures at this ground have resulted in draws, and you can get odds of +245 on the sides cancelling each other out at the SuperBook.

Although only four games into the new season, it is fair to say that both managers find themselves under significant pressure already. 

Despite starting the campaign in positive form by beating Stoke City and Bournemouth before claiming an away draw at Arsenal, Brendan Rodgers’ side saw all their good work undone with that demoralizing defeat to West Ham. 

While this match potentially presents the perfect opportunity to get the crowd back onside with a big win, it is likely that the 42-year-old will merely be hoping to avoid a defeat that would see his position come under real scrutiny. 

Considering his side has scored just twice in four matches so far, it would certainly seem foolhardy for the former Swansea City manager to rely on his attack to secure the points. What’s more, with the Red Devils currently boasting just three goals to their name after four Premier League matches, it is unlikely that we will be witnessing a free-flowing classic this time out.
 
Having held Arsenal to a 0-0 draw just a couple of weeks ago, laying odds of -120 seem fair on Liverpool ensuring they don't concede against a blunt Manchester United outfit.

Goal.com pick: 'No' on both teams to score at -120*

*Editor's note: If this prop is not available at your book, you could consider betting UNDER 2.5 goals at -130.
