Liverpool face Manchester United at Old Trafford in Sunday afternoon, in what remains English football’s biggest fixture.
Jurgen Klopp’s side know that victory would equal Manchester City’s record of 18 Premier League wins a row, also keeping them at least eight points clear at the top of the table.
On paper, everything points to a Reds win, but football has a funny way of proving people wrong.
Sergio Romero is set to come into the side at the expense of David De Gea, after the latter picked up an injury for Spain earlier in the week.
These United supporters are predicting a masterclass from their second-choice goalkeeper.
ROMERO MASTERCLASS INCOMING

Sergio is not that much of a downgrade. Plus, u know moh salah is gonna dive for penalty. At least Sergio can save them better than de gea.

No problem for me if Sergio plays on Sunday. He will give his all as he always does, can’t ask for much more than that.

Read Liverpool Verdict
De Gea’s absence is an obvious blow for United, but Romero is arguably the Premier League’s best backup ‘keeper.
Adrian may have something to say about that, but either way, he is a strong option for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.
Reserve ‘keepers seem to have a history of doing well against Liverpool – perhaps it just feels like that and there’s no truth to it – but the Reds could do without that happening this weekend.
