Man United's tactical approach vs Liverpool is going to rely on three players

In boxing terminology, there is a classic saying that 'styles make fights', which is a way of saying having two distinct fighters going up against each other can often produce great contests, while two defensive tacticians will often combine for 12 rounds of drudgery.

We've already had one example of how these approaches can play out, back at Anfield in December. That Sunday afternoon saw Liverpool rack up 34 shots, but it ended goalless and Klopp was praising United's defending after the game. Ten Hag had abandoned any attempt to play a high line as injuries ripped his defence apart. It is likely to once again be Raphael Varane and Jonny Evans in unison on Sunday and the last thing they want is to be defending space in behind with the likes of Luis Diaz, Darwin Nunez and Mohamed Salah on the prowl.

If they are to make it eight, then it seems pretty likely that Andre Onana will again be busy. He has played in nine of those 10 games and has made 39 saves in those matches. He has been in excellent form and it seems likely he will have to be again at Old Trafford.
