Liverpool travel to Old Trafford looking to prevent United from winning a 10th match in a row in all competitions
Klopp v Mourinho
Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp has the best record of any top coach against Jose Mourinho.
It may have been a difficult 18 months for Jose Mourinho, but the Manchester United manager still boasts a formidable record against his rival managers. During his time at the top, the 53-year-old has had the measure of most of the top coaches in the game.
However, Mourinho's record against one man in particular would suggest that Sunday's game between Manchester United and Liverpool at Old Trafford could prove tricky. Jurgen Klopp boasts an impressive record in his six previous meetings with Mourinho.
The Liverpool boss has won three of his six matches against Mourinho's teams, losing only once. Indeed, even that solitary 2-0 defeat came after his Borussia Dortmund side had beaten Real Madrid 4-1 in the first leg and so progressed in the Champions League anyway.
BOTH TEAM LOSSES TOP AFRICAN SKIPPERS TO INTERNATIONAL DUTIES.
