So it is that time again for another super sunday, and the big one of course is Manchester United v Liverpool. It has to be said, even though Liverpools form and seasons fluctuate this is still regarded by many as the biggest game of the season be that at Old Trafford or Anfield.
So, How do you all see this going? If united get a win, which they must be favourites to do, then they are very much in the driving seat for the title. If Liverpool get a win, well? Could we be back in contention and throw the title race wide open again? Opinions please. |

I see Liverpool controlling the game throughout but not making any clear cut chances. United to nick it towards the end. Vidic 1-0

i lol-ed at the description below the thread title.. is it gazza?.. haha..
well.. it would be a great match.. and on sunday?.. should've returned in time to watch it.. also hope they don't play the Chelsea v Arsenal match live at the same time.. =P i'm not sure if we're winning this match.. so a draw would already be a good result.. hopefully.. fergie's playing his best team.. with no injured players.. XD Man Utd 2 - 1 Liverpool [i said i'm not sure.. but then.. it's better to wish for a win to my team.. lol] |

Well i know i jest a little. I actually think we might be able to get something from this match. I dont know if it is over confidence for once this season putting a nice little run of wins together or not but i actually think we might be able to get a point. As the other ben said, we rarely score v United so i think it will be a counter attacking game for us once again. but i just have the Danny Murphy free kick in my head when we beat United few years back, and can see something like that happening again. |

Not going to make any predictions at all for this. I just hope we go out there and handle ourselves.

I don't mind Sky arranging the fixtures like this so the "big four" play off against each other. It's worth the hype in my opinion. It's GRAND SLAM SUNDAY!!! About the game, I reckon Man Utd will win 2-0. PS - Benraul: the only way Liverpool will get back into the title race is if United lose this and the Bolton game tomorrow. But it ain't gonna happen mate. |

I can't wait for this Sunday, I've been waiting for it for ages now and I've thought about every aspect of it from every angle, I just want the game to hurry up so I can bite my finger nails down and hopefully celebrate afterwards.
I'm actually in a fair bit of doubt about the game and I'll tell you why... * Fergie hasn't fielded the same central midfield in two consecutive games since the end of January against Reading and then Tottenham and even then it was Hargreaves and Carrick, which isn't even the first choice pairing. It always pays to have a bit of consistency going into the big games and whilst it's all well and good having a few top class players to chop and change, it's not always going to come off especially if you come up against a regular well knitted partnership. * The forward line is missing chances galore, Rooney seems off the boil at the minute in my opinion and Tevez hasn't had a run of games in a while so isn't exactly going to be on fire and infact looks a little short on fitness. That leaves a lot of pressure on Ronaldo who doesn't usually play his best in big games.... We might have to rely on a scrappy goal or two and whilst they all count, you don't always want to rest on that possibility e.g. Pompey in the FA Cup. * I'm not sure who the keeper is going to be yet, Foster will be playing against Bolton tomorrow night and then VDS will have a race to get fit for the weekend. Even though I rate Foster highly I'd still rather have the experience of VDS behind the defence in such a big game. There are also other factors such as the form of Torres who has been outstanding as of late and the fact that Rio had a slight back injury at the weekend and could be a bit fragile but believe me, he's needed very muchly. The defence just isn't the same without him on form and with Torres about you don't want to risk it. That being said I have to expect a win what with it being at home but it will be very tight, very very tight. I'll go for Manchester United 1-0 Liverpool. |

Disgrace. This game is on easter sunday, oui? I remember a year ago, Spurs had a uefa game in Sevilla on the Thursday, played on an early ko on saturday and wouldn't let us play on sunday as it was "easter sunday" and the fa or who ever wouldn't move it to the sunday or monday.
Looks like the big 4 rule only happens again |

I'm sure it had nothing to do with it being Easter Sunday...
