Man U vs. Liverpool

As you all know or in case you don't know, the Bloody Red rivalry of North West England will return this Sunday. Every Manchester United-Liverpool match is bound to bring back memories of previous matches which the two teams played each other in.

Liverpool's three-game winning streak against the Red Devils came to and end in the last game where the latter came from behind to win 2:1. Excluding the goal which they scored, the Reds looked awful for that entire game.

This Sunday, expect to see a different Liverpool at Old Trafford. There is one man from the away team who has a point to prove.

Fernando Torres is a pale shadow of what he was just 15 months ago. Never mind, a reuniting on the pitch with Man U's Nemanja Vidic may spark the Spanish to transform into a lethal weapon

One good news for Liverpool is that Joe Cole is back from suspension. The bad news is there will be selection headache for manager Roy Hodgson. Maybe Cole will be played as a wing man with Steven Gerrard in the central attacking midfield role

Manchester United will have Wayne Rooney back after he was MIA last week. Expect United to play three central midfielders to control the game. The main battle will be in the middle with both sides boasting quality players

Tip? Liverpool to win 2:1. This is a very biased prediction
