Manchester United and Liverpool are in good form

Manchester City are at the top of the league table, equal on points with Manchester United. However, the Red Devils have played two games more.

Liverpool, on the other hand, are 3rd in the table, four points behind both Manchester United and Manchester City.

Manchester United recently thrashed Southampton 9-0, with the likes of Edinson Cavani, Anthony Martial and Marcus Rashford all finding the net. Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s Manchester United side have been highly impressive this season.

Meanwhile, Liverpool were in the news recently, having signed two centre-backs in the form of Ben Davies and Ozan Kabak. Long-term injuries to Virgil van Dijk, Joe Gomez and Joel Matip forced Liverpool’s hand, with manager Jurgen Klopp having utilised midfielders Fabinho and Jordan Henderson at centre-back.

The arrival of Davies and Kabak will ease the pressure on Liverpool youngsters, including Rhys Williams and Nathaniel Phillips.
