Expert reveals how Man Utd can beat Liverpool in Premier League
Manchester United travel to Anfield on Saturday sitting in second place in the Premier League table while the home side are playing catch-up in seventh.
Despite United’s impressive start to the season, Jose Mourinho’s side has only played teams in the bottom half of the table and Liverpool are likely to be their sternest test of the season to date.
It is also the start of a tough period of fixtures before the next international break which includes matches against Tottenham and Chelsea.

And Neville, who played for United in a number of games against Liverpool, believes it could be a defining moment in their title challenge.
“This is the biggest game of the season for Manchester United for two reasons,” Neville told Sky Sports.
“Firstly, Anfield away is the ultimate test, mentally and physically with the intensity.
“There's obviously less home grown talent but the atmosphere will be brilliant and it is a game which you dare not lose as a player.

“I was never excited about going to Anfield. There was always too much at stake. You only got excited when you won there.
“It is also the biggest game because United have played a lot of the lower teams, so this is their first real test.
“This game, in some ways, defines how they are set up for a tough run of upcoming fixtures, with Tottenham and Chelsea also coming in the next four Premier League games.”
