Manchester United is trying to win its first victory in ten years at Anfield! Amorim hopes for Sheshko, who once defeated Liverpool

Manchester United's Premier League game at Liverpool on Sunday will be an important milestone. This is the 100th game at Anfield in the history of the Red Devils. Ruben Amorim has the opportunity to leave his mark in the history of the "Double Red Club" by scoring all 3 points, and further reduce the pressure on him to get out of class. A win at Anfield would leave United just two points behind their rivals in the table.

When Manchester United first visited Anfield in 1895, they won. However, they only won 26 out of 99 games, and their winning rate of 26% is not considered high. In fact, the last time the Red Devils won there was in 2016. Van Gaal led the team and Rooney won. The Dutch coach is also known as Liverpool's nemesis.

Amorim has just broken a curse and became the first manager since Sir Alex Ferguson to coach Manchester United to a 50th victory. Last season, Amorim's Manchester United unfortunately drew 2-2 with Liverpool at Anfield. This time they hope to go one step further and give their old enemy a four-game losing streak in all competitions. This may be the best opportunity, as Sloter's team may be without five players.

Central defender Ibrahima Konate was substituted in the loss to Chelsea, and his thigh injury has not improved. The French team officially announced last weekend that he had left the national team and had returned to Liverpool. According to the "Daily Express" report, the French central defender will undergo a physical assessment before the game against Manchester United. Although he has been inconsistent this season, his absence would still be a major blow for Liverpool.

When Konate was injured in the last round, Dutch midfielder Grafenberg played as a central defender, but the latter may not be able to participate this time. Hrafenberch was substituted at half-time in the Netherlands' World Cup qualifying win over Finland, sparking speculation that he might miss the game against Manchester United.

Netherlands coach Ronald Koeman said after the game: "Ryan (Grafenberch) feels a slight problem with his hamstring, and of course we will not take any risks because of it." The player himself added: "This is partly related to physical fitness. The season is long, so this is just a precaution. I feel good and the coach has great confidence in me."

It is said that Hrafenberch's injury is not too serious, and Liverpool hopes to be able to play against Manchester United after evaluating the injury. Endo was also removed from the Japan national team at the last minute due to an undisclosed injury, and his health is also in question.

Liverpool's main goalkeeper Alisson has confirmed that he will miss several weeks due to a hamstring problem, while new defender Giovanni Leoni suffered a serious knee injury last month and is expected to miss the rest of the season. The two have been confirmed to miss the Double Reds.

Of course, although Liverpool has lost all its last 3 games, the defending Premier League champion will still face Manchester United as the favorite to win. If Amorim wants to win two consecutive Premier League wins for the first time since taking charge, he may need to look to center Benjamin Sheshko.

The 22-year-old Sheshko has scored goals in the last two games, and he has conquered Liverpool. In a preseason game in 2022, the Slovenian center scored the only goal of the game, helping the team defeat Liverpool, who was coached by Klopp at the time, 1-0. After breaking through, Sheshko cooperated with his teammates to get rid of Konat, and then shot and scored.

In addition to scoring a goal, Sheshko also had many breakthroughs and shots, which turned Liverpool's defense upside down. Manchester United's 85 million euro deal to sign Seshko was recently voted the worst transfer of the summer by agents organized by "Sports.com". However, if he can score against Liverpool, it will be Manchester United's No. 30's most powerful refutation of this doubt. Owen, who has played for Manchester United and Liverpool, believes that it is too early to judge Sheshko and should see him play another 10 to 15 games.
