"We know we can expect a strong opposition, hostile ambience" - Ten Hag

Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag has prepared his players to face Liverpool at Anfield. The Dutchman held a pre-match press conference and spoke about the atmosphere they are expecting and his expectations of the game.

"I'm very excited. I am really looking forward [to it], and we know we can expect a strong opposition, hostile ambience and we are really looking forward to performing there.

"Mentality is one of the decisive factors on Sunday. We know we have to play our best to get the right result there. The character makes a difference. The one who is the most resilient and have the most spirit in the team. [Whoever is] most brave will win the game," he added.

"The players are used to playing those games. We also have the experience [of] playing Liverpool, or if they played Liverpool away, or Manchester United v Liverpool, then they have played [against] Barcelona or Real Madrid. They know how to deal with such locations," the coach concluded.
