With just three weeks of the Premier League season to go, Manchester United's destiny is in their own hands.
The Reds are currently fourth in the standings, one place and four points ahead of Liverpool. Perhaps cautiously, however, United will be looking over their shoulders if the Merseysiders beat Brentford on Saturday evening at Anfield.
A sixth successive victory for Jurgen Klopp's side would move them to within just a point of the Reds, ahead of them facing West Ham United at the London Stadium on Sunday evening, meaning they have the opportunity to apply some pressure in the race for Champions League qualification. United, however, following Liverpool's clash with the Bees will have two games in hand, highlighting how they will remain in charge of their destiny.
