Cody Gakpo acknowledges that the 7-0 victory at Anfield last season made him see the full extent of Liverpool’s rivalry with Manchester United.

After a lackluster first few months at Old Trafford, the Reds forward—who scored twice in that historic victory back in March—says United isn’t being undervalued in the locker room.

Last season, Gakpo scored United’s first goal just before halftime, then added a delicious second as Jurgen Klopp’s team ran amok to hand United their most crushing loss ever.

An embattled Erik ten Hag arrives on Merseyside having lost 11 games this season in all competitions, including seven in the Premier League. The Red Devils confirmed their elimination from European football with a midweek loss at Old Trafford against Bayern Munich, following their home defeat of Bournemouth 3-0 the previous week.

Even so, as the most watched club match in football draws near, Gakpo and his teammates aren’t taking anything for granted.

Graeme Souness takes a jab at Gary Neville in his most recent Liverpool and Manchester United prediction, saying, “Convinced once again.”

Graeme Souness believes his previous team will defeat their rivals on Sunday, but only Bruno Fernandes makes it into Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool selection out of the Manchester United squad.

This weekend, the Reds will take on a United squad that is in a difficult situation. In addition to dealing with a significant injury to his captain due to suspension, Erik ten Hag must manage two other issues.

As he sends out a confident message before of kickoff, just as he did nine months ago before the 7-0 victory over the same opponent, Souness feels that this can only work to Liverpool’s advantage.
