Liverpool – Manchester United prediction: the top bets to try
Here are our must-have betting tips for this match. These three predictions are based on in-depth analysis and recent trends, providing promising options for bettors.
Prediction 1: Liverpool wins and scores more than 2.5 goals
This derby in the west of England promises to be very much to the advantage of Liverpool. Undisputed leader of the Premier League, the Merseyside club has only lost once this season in the Premier League and remains on a series of four victories in a row (all competitions combined). In recent weeks, Arne Slot’s team has notably displayed its offensive power by crushing Tottenham (3-6) and West Ham (0-5) for the last match of the year 2024. With Mohamed Salah at the top of his art, Liverpool seems untouchable or almost. For Manchester United, the dynamic is very different. The Red Devils indeed concluded their year 2024 with a terrible series of four defeats. Note in particular these two rather embarrassing losses against Bournemouth (0-3) then against Wolves (2-0). In these conditions, we are betting on a fairly clear success for Liverpool. The prediction “Liverpool beats Manchester United and scores three or more goals” is rated at 1.95 at Betclic.
Pronostic 2 : Mohamed Salah marque et Liverpool gagne

With a total of 17 goals scored in the Premier League, he is the top scorer in the English Championship ahead of Erling Haaland (14 goals). He is also the player who has delivered the most assists (13 assists) in the Premier League. Scorer eight times and seven times decisive assist in the seven matches that Liverpool played in December, the former AS Roma striker concluded the year 2024 on an exceptional basis. To date, he is a serious candidate for the next Ballon d’Or. This first big shock of the year will be a new opportunity to show itself to its advantage for the Little Pharaoh. The prediction “Liverpool beats Manchester United and Mohamed Salah scores” is rated at 1.95 at Betclic.
Prognostic 3 : Cody Gakpo scorer
The Dutchman also concluded the year 2024 well with a goal against West Ham (0-5) and another achievement during the reception of Leicester (3-1). With a total of five goals scored this season in the Premier League, the former PSV Eindhoven star has not yet panicked the scorers, but this second part of the season could allow him to further establish himself as a benchmark striker in the Premier League. League. To achieve this objective, Cody Gakpo can count on Mohamed Salah (13 assists) who knows how to make his attacking colleagues shine. A Cody Gakpo goal against Manchester United will multiply your starting bet by 2.40 if you go through Betclic.
Liverpool – Manchester United: analysis of the match
Liverpool dreams of humiliating its neighbor
In addition to the desire to strengthen its rank as leader of the Premier League, Liverpool will have another objective this Sunday: to plunge their rival United even further into turmoil. In recent years, the Reds have quite clearly gained hegemony over their neighbor. During the first leg last September, Arne Slot’s protégés, for example, largely dominated the proceedings at Old Trafford (0-3). More generally, Liverpool have won six times in the last ten confrontations between the two teams, sometimes in spectacular fashion (7-0 in 2023), (0-5 in 2021). On the eve of this shock, it is difficult to imagine any other result than a victory for Liverpool.
Manchester United still can’t do it
While the arrival of Ruben Amorim had brought a breath of hope to Manchester United, the morale of Mancunian fans is once again at its lowest. United indeed concluded the year 2024 with four defeats in a row. Note that the Red Devils have not scored any goals in their last three performances against Bournemouth (0-3), Wolverhampton (2-0) and Newcastle (0-2). Only 14th in the Premier League, Manchester United are now 15 points from the podium and seven from the red zone. Sixteenth PL attack with only 21 goals scored in 19 games, United is particularly struggling in the offensive sector like Marcus Rashford (4 goals) in distress. Rookies like Joshua Zirkzee (3 goals) have also not suffered from the torments of this giant of the PL.
