Liverpool - Manchester United 17/10/2016
In this meeting of the 8th round of Premier League Liverpool accepts Manchester United. Whatever we say, these are the two greatest teams in the country and probably will have such a long time. The derby between them has always been and will continue to have exclusive charge and very often happens that the three points are at least in such a great match. In such rivalries there is always something more important than winning a mere point and that is the pleasure of victory.
The season is developing very strange for both teams, which started in the complete opposite. While the team of Jürgen Klopp impressed with their victory over Arsenal in the first round and then played two very nasty fight, the "Red Devils" long retained his 100% success rate.

Shortly after the victory over Arsenal team of Jürgen Klopp did not win two consecutive matches, losing first by Burnley 2-0 and shortly afterwards came the tie against Tottenham (1-1). Thus even after the 3rd round Liverpool had a backlog amounting to 5 points compared to the first position, but not long after this change. Currently the situation is such that "citizens" have already played the game from the circle and stepped sideways, finishing 1-1 in their household Everton. This means that a possible victory against Manchester United not only will bring extraordinary joy because of the very triumph in the "eternal derby", and will do so for the first time this season Liverpool have contact with first place. Three points will catch the team of Jürgen Klopp on points with Manchester City and Arsenal and that the title race will become even more interesting.
As already mentioned a long time Manchester United did not err under the guidance of Mourinho, although not playing brilliant football. This in no way prevented the team to earn points and move up ahead in the overall standings. And so it came to other big derby for United - what with Manchester City ended with a loss in the middle of "Old Trafford". Somewhere was demonstrated serious weaknesses in the presentation of "red" and in the last three league matches they recorded only one victory - over Leicester. Meanwhile, for the first time in his career as manager Jose Mourinho conceded three losses within a week - something really curious.
The good news about him are mostly related to the fact that there was enough time after yet another disappointment in the Premier League - equality in the middle of "Old Trafford" with Stoke City to work with his team. Another very pleasant news for Mourinho is that he has no injured players in their ranks, with the exception of Phil Jones.
Speaking of injuries must be noted that they can play very, very bad joke rival Liverpool. Klopp until recently enjoyed the full range of players, but after the break for the national teams so happened that one did considerable part of its holders are questionable for the big derby with United.
Surely outside accounts Klopp remain Mamadou Sakho, Shea Odzho and Joe Gomez, who are permanently injured. This is not much bad news for the "red" because none of these three is not a key player for them. Big problems are related to physical condition: Nathaniel Klein, Adam Lallana, Dejan Lovren and Dzhordzhinyo Vaynaudam. It so happened that after the end of the last round Klein injured and missed the game to England. The same situation is with Lala and Lovro while Vaynaudam get nasty leg injury during the match against France qualifying for the World Cup in Russia. At the same time there were some question marks and about the physical condition of two of the biggest stars - Felipe Koutinyo and Roberto Firmin, but the club did not put two Brazilians have injuries.
However, each of these 4 persons holders have a real chance to be reinstated for the big derby and start as a starter.
I expect to witness an extremely high quality meeting in which fans of "Liverpool" to play their role and to encourage their to win the precious three points against the eternal rival.
