Manchester United Legend Wes Brown Backs Former Side to Upset Odds Against Liverpool in FA Cup Clash
Liverpool heads to Old Trafford as strong favorites for Sunday’s FA Cup clash, aiming to secure a path to the semi-finals as they pursue an ambitious ‘quadruple’ of trophies in Jurgen Klopp’s final season.
Expected to field a full-strength lineup, the Reds are likely to rotate players for their Europa League tie against Sparta Prague, prioritizing their quest for domestic cup glory.
Despite Manchester United’s recent resurgence with seven wins in their last nine matches, their performances have yet to match the standards set in previous seasons, particularly during their run to the FA Cup final.
As anticipation builds for this high-stakes encounter, Liverpool’s dominance in recent fixtures and United’s inconsistent form add an extra layer of intrigue to the matchup.
With both teams aiming to seize the opportunity for silverware, Sunday’s clash at Old Trafford promises to be a captivating spectacle, showcasing the intensity of one of English football’s most historic rivalries on the FA Cup stage.
Despite the return of in-form striker Rasmus Hojlund from injury potentially boosting Erik ten Hag’s side, Manchester United is viewed as the underdog for their upcoming clash against Liverpool, even with the advantage of playing at home.
