English Premier League Is Back !
The Reds' unbeaten record will get a tough test when it is blocked by Manchester United's arch-rivals at Anfield Stadium at the end of the 17 Premier League gameweek (12/16/2018).
Liverpool are currently at the top of the standings with a one point lead from defending champions Manchester City. They also look very convincing, a team that hasn't lost so far in the Premier League. Liverpool also just confirmed themselves qualifying for the last 16 of the Champions League as runners-up after beating Napoli 1-0 there was the final matchday of the group phase.
One of the brightest Liverpool players in the last few weeks is Mohamed Salah. He netted a hat-trick against Bournemouth in the league last weekend, then scored a decisive single goal against Napoli in the Champions League.
Liverpool are being hit by an injury storm, especially in the defense sector, which was obtained in the Champions League match yesterday namely Trent Alexander-Arnold and Joel Matip.
Midnight yesterday, United also played their last match in the Champions League group phase, and lost 1-2 against hosts Valencia. United can actually play without a burden, because it is certain to qualify for the round of 16.
But the player's crisis in United's camp is still far worse. Victor Lindelof, Alexis Sanchez and Marcus Rojo are still injured. Meanwhile, Luke Shaw, Anthony Martial, Chris Smalling, Matteo Darmian and Diogo Dalot are in doubt.
Liverpool have a good chance to win three points. It's just that, Liverpool also need to remember that they often have difficulty every time they fight with the Red Devils.

Match Prediction
Each team has the same problem, which is hit by injuries from several important players. But for United, with the choice of limited players like now, that might be a little impossible. It won't be surprising if Mourinho applies a defensive strategy.
But, Manchester United might not be able to reduce Liverpool for 90 minutes. There will be at least one crucial moment that can determine the final outcome.
we predict the match will be a little tough. Liverpool will force a win with a final score of 1-0.
