Manchester United vs Liverpool (EL CLASSICO of ENGLAND) preview

This weekend in the EPL, football fans are in for a treat, as one of the biggest rivalries in world football takes center stage at Old Trafford. Two of Englands most successful clubs go head-to-head, with no team looking to slip up points against their bitter rivals.
Both teams go into the game with the same amount of form, as they both have only picked up 7 points from a possible 12 so far, with both losing their previous games. With many players returning from international commitments, this game is sure to be a blockbuster affair.

This match is never just about winning, it is about pride and prestige that these two clubs have, and both managers will know this, and will do their best to tilt the odds in their favor.

On paper, Manchester United has the upper hand. With their recent acquisition of Bastian Schweinsteiger, their defense will be more uptight and I believe Liverpool's attack will find it hard to get past Man U's midfield. However, if we are taking team forms into account, Manchester United haven't been looking quite promising with their games. To be fair, the same can be said for Liverpool. I guess we'll just have to wait it out to see how it all turns out.
