Liverpool face Manchester United this weekend, and to say that Jurgen Klopp’s side come into this game as favourites is an understatement.
Manchester United are coming into this game in poor form, while Liverpool are top of the league and nine unbeaten.
The Reds have been absolutely brilliant as of late, while the Red Devils have been well off the pace.
Writing in his BBC Sport column, Chris Sutton has had a go at predicting how this game will go, and, unsurprisingly, he’s tipped Liverpool to win this one convincingly.

Sutton gave his verdict on how this game will go.
“United still haven’t beaten anyone in the top half of the table, either. How can they win this game? There is just no way, unless some huge refereeing decisions go their way,” Sutton wrote.
“Liverpool are not just in the top half, they are a top team and they are in top spot – and they are going to spank them.”
Heavy favourites
We can’t help but think that Liverpool are heading into this game as very heavy favourites.
The gulf between these two teams may be as big as it ever has been. The Reds are in ridiculously good form, while United are faltering at every turn as of late.
This fixture was 7-0 last year, and, in all honesty, you wouldn’t back against a similar sort of result playing out this time.
Anfield is a fortress, Liverpool are in great form and United have a massive injury and confidence crisis at the moment, for our money, there’s only one winner heading into this game.
Liverpool could once again embarrass their rivals here, and in doing so, they could send out a huge statement in the race for the Premier League title.
