Liverpool
will visit Manchester United this weekend to play a Premier League game against
their bitter rivals at Old Trafford.
Liverpool
continued their struggling season against Basel in the Champions League midweek
clash. While Manchester Untied are enjoying their unbeaten run of five games.
Below
are the three main points that Brendan Rodgers should keep in mind before the
match.
Team selection
Rodgers
made a mistake of giving a start to Jose Enrique in the Champions League. He has not played enough this season yet the boss gave him a start in a crucial game. Alberto
Moreno should take his place back.
Another
thing that Liverpool lacked is the creativity from the midfield. Joe Allen,
Lucas Leiva, Jordon Henderson and Steven Gerrard all of them are not creative
enough to provide chances for their strikers.
Philippe
Coutinho or Adam Lallana should get a lineup this Sunday.
Lazar Markovic and Raheem Sterling
should be used
Liverpool
boss Brendan Rogers should use the speed of duo Lazar Markovic and Raheem
Sterling. Markovic is likely to get a start as he looked sharp and
lively in the last game against Basel. His speed is the major factor that can
give the Reds a big boost in attack along with their start player Raheem Sterling.
Winning Mentality
The
Reds should be playing this game as a Cup final in order to get some positive result.
Liverpool are already six points away from the fourth spot. It is a must win
game, they should show the same impressive game which they displayed in the last
15 minutes against Basel.
