Solskjaer seems to know how to frustrate the Reds, and Al Hain-Cole is backing him to keep the scoreline tight once again at Anfield on Sunday
Liverpool face one of the biggest threats to an almost faultless Premier League season when they take on Manchester United at Anfield on Sunday.
The Reds dropped their only points of the campaign so far in October’s 1-1 draw at Old Trafford, while they have only won once in 11 league encounters against their fiercest rivals.

Liverpool vs Manchester United Preview
Although Jurgen Klopp’s tenure since arriving at Anfield is now almost beyond reproach, his underwhelming record against this opposition will be cause for some frustration.
The German manager’s two victories in 10 against the Red Devils is his worst win ratio out of all the teams he has faced at least 10 times in his entire career, while he is yet to get the better of his opposite number.
Indeed, Solskjaer has seen his side concede just once in two matches against the current leaders, and will be optimistic of silencing the home crowd with a similarly robust performance on Sunday.
