"It's always a huge game" - Fabio Aurelio on Liverpool's clash against Man United
Former Liverpool defender Fabio Aurelio has given his thoughts on the club's upcoming Premier League clash against Manchester United.
The two teams will meet at Old Trafford tonight. Both sides have had poor starts to 2022-23 top-flight campaign.
Liverpool and Manchester United are yet to secure a victory. With that being the case, Aurelio believes tonight's game is massive for both teams.
As quoted by AW's Twitter account, he told the club's official website the following: "It's always a huge game but tonight's probably takes on greater importance due to both teams' start to the season. For Liverpool, there's no better game to get back on track than against your biggest rivals at their home.
"In my opinion, Liverpool need to be very strong mentally and have last season's visit to Old Trafford in their mind for confidence and belief. It's always a must-watch spectacle, and I'll be tuning in from Brazil."
Anfield Watch Verdict
We completely agree with Aurelio. This is a game both sides need to win. So, the stakes are high heading into tonight.
Liverpool secured a 5-0 victory over Manchester United at Old Trafford last season. Winger Mohamed Salah scored a hat-trick.
The aforementioned result highlights that Liverpool are a better side than Manchester United. But, anything can happen in a game of football.
The Reds will need to play well if they are to secure the three points at Old Trafford tonight. Only time will tell if that is to be the case.
