Victory must be won by Liverpool in order to match Man United’s point collection while returning to first place. Liverpool must perform better than the previous four games to win tonight
“The game at the moment is very big, especially because now they (Man United) are in first position and we are below it. We have to win, ”said Mohamed Salah on TV2, as quoted by Liverpool’s official website, Sunday (17/1/2021).
“If they win they will be six points ahead and if you win you will equal their points. It’s a bit of a privilege in this match, “he said.
Liverpool are in a slump, but the Reds can hope for Anfield Stadium’s luck. Liverpool are unbeaten in 67 home games in the Premier League. The awesomeness of Anfield Stadium will help Liverpool against Man United.
