What a match that would be plus some add intensity with the fact that Liverpool did a double on United last season and United, if we go on to win the Premier League again this season will replace Liverpool as the most succesful club in England with 19 league titles. There is also a small matter of former Liverpool’s star Michael Owen return to Anfield as a Mancester United’s player and Liverpool if they lose this game will equal their 1953-54 season of 5 games losing streak. Liverpool was rock bottom that season and was relagated to the old English Division Two. Surely it can’t happen again. Can it happen?

On current form and on paper United looks the better side. Then again, you’ll never really know what will happen on the field. United fans will surely remember what had happpened last season when on both games, United were on the cruise control until blunders by Wes Brown and then Vidic turn the tie around in Liverpool’s favour. More refreshing is on last week when United again was in control in their game against Bolton until goal by Taylor in the 75th minutes provides moment of tenses for United fans, although this time we actually did managed to hang on and win by 2 – 1.
