MUN vs LIV Dream11 Team Prediction Tips for FA Cup Fixture Manchester United vs Liverpool 24 January

MUN vs LIV Dream11: Manchester United and Liverpool face each other once again but this time in the FA Cup. They faced each other exactly a week ago in the Premier League which ended in a 0-0 stalemate at Anfield. Manchester United are currently first in the Premier League and beat Watford in the previous round to reach this stage. Liverpool on the other hand have been on a poor run of form and are on a 5-game winless streak and have not scored in their last 4 Premier League games. They also ended their unbeaten run at Anfield with a shock defeat to the hands of Burnley which was a set back in their title hopes. But they will look to right their wrongs as their side still possesses a lot of talented players and can easily hurt this Manchester United side.

Expected changes: Dean Henderson usually plays the cup games and will take his place in goal. Victor Lindelof was trusted over Eric Bailly for the reverse fixture and Alex Telles should start over Luke Shaw alongside Aaron Wan-Bissaka and Harry Maguire. Fred started against Fulham and should be granted a rest with Nemanja Matic and Scott McTominay playing in a double pivot. Marcus Rashford, Bruno Fernandes and Paul Pogba will start in attacking midfield with the in-form Edinson Cavani starting as the lone striker.

MUN vs LIV Today Match Prediction:

Bet365: Manchester United – 11/8; Liverpool – 9/5

Paddy Power: Manchester United – 13/10; Liverpool – 9/5

The MUN vs LIV Today Match Prediction is the fixture of the FA Cup Fourth Round with two top sides facing each other. Jurgen Klopp played a weakened side against Burnley which indicates that is going for the win against United. However, United will look to play a somewhat strengthened lineup which also played just a few days ago, away from home. Liverpool will look to take advantage of their fatigue and look to play with the same intensity they did the last time.

Most Likely Result: Liverpool win
