Man United have suffered mixed fortune at the start of this Premier League campaign. On the one hand, they beat Fulham in the first match. Then, they suffered a late loss against Brighton.
Still, there is no time for Erik ten Hag to mope. Instead, he must pick up his head and look ahead to the next game. Without a doubt, it is the first fixture that both sets of fans looked for when the schedule was announced.
Manchester United will host Liverpool in the third game of the Premier League season. It will be a familiar clash between two old foes, Erik ten Hag and Arne Slot.

Man United vs Liverpool Score Prediction
Unfortunately, Liverpool have started well under Arne Slot. The vistors have proven difficult to even score against, let alone beat this season. Old Trafford will be different, though.
I think a Man United 1-1 Liverpool scoreline would benefit Man United, particularly as they are bouncing back from a loss against Brighton.
