Best Tip: Both teams to score

After looking at our match predictions, bookmakers' odds and relevant statistics, there's one market which jumps out ahead of the rest for this fixture: both teams to score. In Man Utd and Liverpool we have two sides going head-to-head that regularly score, but equally have trouble shutting the opposition out, and we expect them to show themselves again on Sunday afternoon. BTTS – yes best odds: 1.44.
