Liverpool vs. Manchester United: Date, Time, Live Stream, TV Info and Preview

Despite being without star Luis Suarez, Liverpool are off to a nice start. They have won both of their EPL matches and are rolling.

Still, there is no doubt this match will be a step up in competition. Liverpool's wins have come over Stoke City and Aston Villa. Not to take anything away from those wins, but Manchester United will prove to be a stiffer test.

There is a chance that United will suffer a letdown after an intense draw against Chelsea last week.

However, the Red Devils are deep and talented. They will be motivated not to fall further down the table.

Top Storyline: Can Shorthanded Liverpool Survive? 

As I mentioned, Liverpool has been dealing with the absence of Suarez, who is still serving out his suspension for biting.

On top of that, injuries to Aly Cissokho, Joe Allen and Kolo Toure will likely keep that trio out of action. Liverpool will need to use their home pitch advantage for all it's worth. 

Even to escape with a point will be a nice victory for this squad considering the talent they will be missing. 

Prediction

Brendan Rodgers will have his club eager to strike on the counter. However, with United's potent attack centered around Robin van Persie, waiting for counterattacks can be a frustrating proposition against the Red Devils. I expect a lot of frustration for Liverpool in this one.
