This Thursday evening you can witness the exciting duel between Man United and Chelsea. What makes this match-up a very interesting one is the current position of Liverpool. After 36 games, Man United sits in 4th spot with 69 points, a position that qualifies in the UEFA Champions League. On the other side, Liverpool is the 5th placed team with a total of 66 points and a better goal difference than Man United, but after 37 games.
Hence, tonight’s outcome at Old Trafford might confirm who’s going to play in the most elite UEFA tournament next year.
