The key stat: XI attacking output. Of everything on this page, this is the biggest difference. Manchester United come out on top, 2.82 against 2.45. Historically, the side naming the more potent eleven takes these roughly 70% of the time. The measures below it were chosen the same way.

Against the call – it favours Manchester United; Liverpool are tipped because they lead on home advantage, the long-run strength gap and changes in the other camp.

  • The callLiverpool to win: 48% against 27%, with the draw at 25%. Confidence slight.
  • WhyThe call rests on home advantage, the long-run strength gap and changes in the other camp – the strongest pull the other way is what this eleven creates.
