3 reasons why Manchester United will beat Liverpool this afternoon

Forwards firing

Marcus Rashford ended a barren run of no goal since September by firing home a brace against Reading in the FA Cup last weekend.

The England international had been struggling for form and confidence, but he’ll now look to push on should he start against Liverpool today.

It’s not just Rashford though who has looked good in recent weeks: Zlatan Ibrahimovic is one of the most in-form strikers in the division, having netted nine goals in his last nine league games, while the likes of Anthony Martial, Wayne Rooney, and Henrikh Mkhitaryan have all netted in the past few weeks.

Mourinho has several forward options to choose from against Liverpool, with the knowledge that he can bring quality players off the bench to change the game if needed.
