Lawrenson shares his prediction

Former Liverpool defender Mark Lawrenson has shared his prediction ahead of Sunday’s clash between Manchester United and Liverpool.

The two teams will face off on Sunday afternoon at Old Trafford in the Premier League, in what promises to be exciting.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s side will be boosted by their midweek result against Atalanta which could give his side much-needed confidence.

Previewing Sunday’s match, Lawrenson said: “Manchester United’s performance to come back from 2-0 down against Atalanta and win 3-2 on Wednesday sums up what they look like under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer. They can also have spells where they are horrible, like when they are very hard to stop.

“Had United been beaten it would have been a bonus for Liverpool but, instead, both are on a high going into the weekend.

“There’s probably more pressure on United to get a positive result, as they’ve dropped points in each of their last three league games, but a draw wouldn’t be a bad result for either of them. other side and that’s what I’m looking for.

“Liverpool won’t change the way they play – they can’t. The reason I think United will close shop is because, if they are open, you would fear the worst for them.”
