271/1 – Manchester United vs Liverpool Bet Builder Tip, Stats and Cheat Sheet

Manchester United play Liverpool in the big Premier League clash this weekend and we have picked out a bet builder tip for the match using the stats from markets such as shots on target, corners, tackles, fouls and bookings.

Anthony Taylor is the referee for the match and it is important to note that he has only given out 20 yellow cards in seven matches so far this season, and one red. That is quite a low average but this should be a high tempo game with a lot of tackles flying in. Taylor will be keen not to dish cards out early but this fixture is a well-known fierce rivalry.

United needed a Cristiano Ronaldo winner in the Champions League on Wednesday night after being 2-0 down and there Premier League form has really been suffering of late. Liverpool also won 3-2 in midweek, at Atletico Madrid and in contrast to United, there form in all competitions has been breathtaking so far this season.
