Liverpool are in a situation they haven't been in for a long time. They are currently on a 3-game losing streak and the international break has come at the right time. Unlike the previous season, when they were more than dominant, Liverpool has a lot of difficulties in the new season. In the first 5 or 6 games, they won in the last 10 minutes of the game and did not seem nearly as dominant as before. Nunez and Luis Diaz left the club, but a large number of high-quality players also joined the team. Frimpong, Wirtz, Ekitike, Kerkez and Isak have strengthened the club, but honestly speaking, it cannot be said that they have left a particularly good impression so far. The only one who stands out from them is Ekitike, who really has a great influence on Liverpool's game. The most was expected from Wirtz, who has not recorded a single goal or assist so far and it is evident that he still needs time to get used to the style of football in England. Major changes in the playing staff are most certainly the cause of Liverpool's somewhat weaker games, but I believe that Slot will manage to combine the team as he wants by the end of the season. The gap behind the leader Arsenal is certainly not big, only 4 points before this game and there is still no reason to panic. A game like this, against the biggest rival in the league, can be a good indicator that the crisis is behind them and that Liverpool will continue where they left off last season. The game of Manchester United is really very difficult to describe and predict. With the arrival of the new coach, expectations were very high. Sesko, Cunha and Mbeumo came to the club, but the old problems are still there. In addition to problems in the offensive, the defensive certainly represents one of the bigger problems of this team. Amorim's stubborn insistence to play with 3 defenders, even though there are no players for such a formation, does not bring much success to United. Lisandro Martinez has been injured for a long time, and Mazraoui's absence will further weaken their defense in this match. Liverpool is known as a team that likes to organize its attacks through the flanks, which seems to me to be the weakest point of United's defense. Yoro and Shaw will have a lot of problems with the penetrations of Gakpo, Kerkez and Salah and it will be very interesting to see how United will adapt to the game of today's host. Given that this match is the biggest derby in England, the players will not lack motivation. I really believe that Liverpool, despite the bad results in the last 3 games, is a much better and more stable team at the moment. United's games don't exude confidence and it's very hard for me to imagine that they can get a positive result in this match based on everything shown so far.

利物浦正处于他们很久没有经历过的境地。他们目前正处于3连败的状态，国际比赛日也来得正是时候。与上个赛季不同的是，利物浦在新赛季有很多困难。在前5或6场比赛中，他们在比赛的最后10分钟获胜，似乎不像以前那样具有统治力。努涅斯和迪亚兹离开了俱乐部，但一大批高素质的球员也加入了球队。弗林蓬、维尔茨、埃基蒂克、克尔克兹和伊萨克加强了俱乐部的实力，但老实说，目前还不能说他们给人留下了特别好的印象。唯一突出的是埃基蒂克，他对利物浦的比赛有很大的影响。人们最期待的是维尔茨，他到目前为止还没有进球或助攻，很明显他还需要时间来适应英格兰的足球风格。球员队伍的重大变化无疑是利物浦比赛表现不佳的原因，但我相信斯洛特会在赛季结束前按照他的意愿重组球队。与领头羊阿森纳的差距当然不大，本场比赛前只有4分，但仍然没有理由恐慌。像这样的比赛，面对联赛中最大的对手，可以很好地表明危机已经过去，利物浦将继续他们上赛季离开的地方。曼联的比赛真的很难描述和预测。随着新教练的到来，人们对他的期望很高。舍斯科、库尼亚和姆博莫来到了俱乐部，但老问题依然存在。除了进攻上的问题，防守当然是这支球队最大的问题之一。阿莫里姆固执地坚持3后卫阵型，即使没有合适的球员，也没有给曼联带来多少成功。马丁内斯已经受伤很长时间了，马兹拉维的缺席将进一步削弱他们在这场比赛中的防守。众所周知，利物浦是一支喜欢通过侧翼组织进攻的球队，在我看来，这似乎是曼联防守的最薄弱环节。约罗和肖面对加普、克尔凯兹和萨拉赫的突破会遇到很多问题，看看曼联如何适应今天东道主的比赛将是非常有趣的。考虑到这场比赛是英格兰最大的德比，球员们不会缺乏动力。我真的相信利物浦，尽管在过去的三场比赛中成绩不佳，但现在是一支更好、更稳定的球队。曼联的比赛没有流露出自信，我很难想象他们能在这场比赛中取得一个积极的结果。
