#2 Pace and precision of Liverpool frontline
Liverpool have the best goalscoring record in the UEFA Champions League this season with 28 goals from 8 games. Also, they have the second-best goalscoring record in the Premier League with 67 goals in 29 games.
Liverpool’s front three has been prolific this season. Mo Salah, Roberto Firmino, and Sadio Mane have been extremely consistent in front of goal this campaign. Salah, in particular, is in ruthless form and leading the Premier League goalscoring chants for 2017/18 with 24 goals.
Manchester United have been troubled by pace this season. Willian exposed it a couple of weeks ago and Townsend showed it last week. Throughout the season, pacy wingers like Leroy Sane, Riyad Mahrez, and Raheem Sterling have troubled Manchester United. With Salah and Mane expected to start on either side of Firmino, there won’t be any shortage of pace, power, and precision.
