That is the view of pundit and former Manchester United defender Phil Neville.

The two managerial heavyweights meet this weekend when their sides clash at Anfield.

Klopp will be looking to get his Liverpool side back on track, while also getting one over Mourinho.

The German has faced the United boss seven times in his career, losing only once.

And Neville believes Mourinho will be looking to forward to the personal battle against his counterpart.

"He won't like it," Neville said on Sky Sports show, The Debate, when asked how the former Chelsea boss feels about the unwanted statistic.

"He prides himself on being the best.

"And Klopp's renowned as one of the world's best coaches and he wont like that Klopp's got a better record."

And Mourinho also has history when it comes to Anfield.

The Portuguese coach saw his Chelsea side knocked out of the Champions League semi-final back in 2005 after an infamous 'ghost goal' from Liverpool's Luis Garcia.

However, Mourinho's Chelsea were responsible for the Reds missing out on the Premier League title under Brendan Rodgers, in a game which will forever be remembered for Steven Gerrard's famous slip.

And Neville thinks these past meetings mean clashes at Liverpool's ground mean more to Mourinho.

"I think that's why he's always enjoyed going to Anfield," he continued.

"He did with his Chelsea side. He used to go there, beat them all the time and say 'park the bus'.

"He likes the challenge and he'll also like the challenge of not being done by Klopp this time because he has the better of him."

United sit joint-top with Manchester City, while Liverpool are six points behind in seventh position.

The pair meet this Saturday (12.30pm).
