Manchester United vs. Liverpool: Red Devils Will Reassert Dominance
By on October 12, 2011
Alex Livesey/Getty Images Manchester United is ready to put the hurt on Liverpool at Anfield, and in the process they will take the wind out of all EPL teams' sails. When the Red Devils are at their best, the rest of the league is playing for second place.
Recently, they have been afflicted with a tendency to sleepwalk through matches though.
Red Devils' Recent Trend of Mediocrity
Man U took a perfect EPL record into their September 14th match with Benfica. They stumbled to a 1-1 draw in that one, and their mediocrity continued.
Including that match, they had a five-match streak that found them going 2-0-3. During that streak, even their wins were not particularly impressive.

Clive Mason/Getty Images The Red Devils bounced back from that five-game stretch with a solid 2-0 win over Norwich. They will keep that momentum going with a big win over Liverpool.Liverpool beat Man U the last time these two met on March 6th. Man U will use that to fuel an all-out performance in this one.
Prediction: Manchester United 3, Liverpool 0
Man U's attack began to show their fluidity and aggressiveness their last time on the pitch. Wayne Rooney is back to his elite form after returning from his hamstring injury, and the offense is following his cue.
They will not be stopped in this one.
