A passionate display from dejected fans last week forced the rescheduling of Manchester United vs Liverpool.
Local Manchester United fans stormed Old Trafford to protest the club’s ownership in light of the recent European Super League debacle, and the high-stakes matchup will now take place on Thursday.
Of the two, Liverpool desperately needs to find a win.
The team has suffering through marquee injuries and spells of poor performances, but remains in the UEFA Champions League picture for next year. Achieving one of the top 4 spots would be the only thing that would salvage a disappointing campaign for the defending Premier League champions.
Manchester United is enjoying a surprising lack of pressure. Safely in the UCL territory and too far back to fight for the title, there really is not much left for the Red Devils to play for.
That fact will make a Liverpool loss much more embarrassing since it would likely be their last chance to stay in the pack, and they would get pushed out by a Manchester United that is just killing time.

THIS WEEK’S TOP 5 MATCHES TO WATCH
- Manchester United vs Liverpool – It is desperation time for Liverpool. It is effectively garbage time for Manchester United, if Liverpool cannot make the most of it, their UCL dreams are over.
- RB Leipzig vs Borussia Dortmund – The German Cup final presents both with the rare opportunity to compete for hardware without Bayern Munich standing in the way.
- Chelsea vs Arsenal – On its way to the UCL final and fresh off a win of its upcoming final opponent, anything less than a dominant performance from Chelsea has the potential to be a spoke in the wheel.
- Atlético Madrid vs Real Sociedad – Atlético fended off Barcelona on Saturday to stay in control of La Liga, but the team still needs to win out to be rewarded for its championship effort.
- San Jose Earthquakes vs Seattle Sounders – San Jose has been one of the more entertaining sides in the young MLS season. Currently sitting in second place, can they take it to the Western Conference leading Sounders?
