Liverpool v United: Betting preview
Check out the latest betting odds from Betfair ahead of Liverpool's Barclays Premier League clash with Manchester United on Sunday.
New Betfair customer offer - 5/1 on a Reds win against United
Liverpool have been on a dream run since losing to United back in December, but they must reverse that Old Trafford defeat when these two meet on Sunday if they are to keep their Champions League qualification hopes alive.
A win would send the Reds into the top four - a position they haven't occupied since the opening weekend of the season - but defeat would leave them five points adrift of their fierce rivals.
Happily for the Anfield faithful, Brendan Rodgers' side have no reason to doubt themselves as they are the form team in the top flight this year.
Monday night's 1-0 win at Swansea City made it five victories on the spin and put Liverpool within one game of the longest unbeaten run of this Premier League season (14, recorded by Chelsea).
That sequence will give the club confidence they can get the better of their big rivals in what is a monster of a game and Betfair believe that Rodgers' side will go marching on, rating them 21/20 favourites.
Liverpool fans not yet signed up to Betfair can get nearly five times better returns that that, however, with a new customer offer of 5/1 on the home win.
Shutting out United will be tricky as they have scored in every top-flight game since Southampton won at Old Trafford in early January, but not impossible. The home clean sheet - which would be No.13 for the campaign - can be backed at 13/8.
Of course, if the Reds are to pick up three vital points someone has to be scoring for the home side and Opta tell us - surprise, surprise - that man is Daniel Sturridge.
The English striker has scored in two of three games for Liverpool against United. He hit the post at Swansea on Monday night and can be backed at 7/5 to go one better on Sunday and 5/1 to open the scoring.
