Liverpool await Manchester United's visit at Anfield with their league title wins.

The two semi-finals of the Champions League are the England National Derby and the Spanish National Derby, which is enough to surprise the eyeballs!

The European media hailed the season as the battle between the kings of England and Spain, and no matter what the result of the semi-finals is, it will be the top of Europe between English teams and La Liga teams!

Liverpool have been recuperating and the team is in the best form and can focus on the Champions League.

Manchester United are actually building up strength for the Champions League.

In the last round of the league, there were a lot of main players, and even the little pea who scored the goal was substituted.

April 26, the day before the Champions League semi-finals.

Ferguson attended the pre-match press conference and finally admitted that United had lost to Liverpool in the league competition, but he also set aside the competitive mode of the Champions League and the league.

'It's all about endurance and consistency, and the reason Liverpool have done better this season than last season is that they have increased the depth of the squad and are better able to deal with injuries, but there is no denying that they have stars who can play decisive energy in key moments, which is why they finally got rid of Manchester United to win the Premier League title, Manchester United have made a lot of mistakes in the league, especially at the beginning of the season, when the poor away record dragged us down and made us chase from the start.

But the Champions League is completely different, especially when it comes to the knockout stages.

It wasn't 38 games that decided the outcome of the game, but two games, 180 minutes or 210 minutes, and United have now adjusted and I believe they can finish the two legs. It was Manchester United who reached the final. And not Liverpool! ”

When it comes to how they will deal with Liverpool. Alex Ferguson pointed out that United will try to play as best as possible in order to keep Liverpool at bay.

Koeman gave Ferguson plenty of respect at his pre-match press conference, and he paid some respect.

'It's a great honour to be able to compete with Sir Alex Ferguson's side in Europe and to bring the English derby to the Champions League semi-finals, and it doesn't mean Liverpool can take Manchester United lightly in the league and beat Manchester United, both in the title race and in the competition. Both legs have a 50% chance of progressing to the Champions League final for both teams! ”

On the evening of April 27, Anfield was packed, and the enthusiasm for the Champions League was extraordinary, coupled with the England national derby against bitter rivals Manchester United, the fans naturally rushed to enter.

The majestic cheering took place in the Anfield stands, where the Manchester United and Liverpool players met in the tunnel.

The players of both teams held their heads high and put on a majestic posture.

Ferguson sat in the dugout and chewed gum on the sidelines, knowing full well that this was not going to be an easy game, especially as Liverpool were in charge of the Champions League after winning the league title.

Liverpool's attacking firepower is very fearful for Manchester United, and the strong control in midfield and the hot form of the striker up front are all headaches for Ferguson.

It's going to be tough for United to walk away from home today. But if they can get a draw with away goals, Ferguson will be very happy.

That meant a return to Old Trafford. Manchester United's chances of qualifying will be greatly improved.

Players from both sides began to enter the field under the leadership of the referee team.

"Welcome to Anfield, home of Liverpool, England, where the Champions League semi-final will be played by Liverpool and Manchester United.

As you all know, the other semi-final was the Spanish derby between Real Madrid and Barcelona.

In the season of the battle between England and Spain, let's first take a look at the Liverpool vs Manchester United.

Just last weekend, Liverpool won the Premier League at home to the second year in a row, while Manchester United will be runners-up if nothing else.

In the past few seasons, Manchester United's head-to-head record against Liverpool has not been good, even in the Benitez era, Manchester United did not take much advantage of Liverpool, and in the Coman era, Liverpool won an overwhelming victory against Manchester United!

It was only in the cup that Liverpool lost to Manchester United.

However, the Champions League happens to be a cup competition, so will Manchester United create problems for Liverpool away today? Let's wait and see.

Let's start by taking a look at the starting line-ups of both teams.

Liverpool started with 442, and Coman didn't put on the 433 formation that he used more in the past.

Goalkeeper: Reina.

Defenders: Johnson, Skrtel, Agger, Baines.

Midfielders: Gerrard, Mascherano, Alonso, Meireles.

Forwards: Raul, Qin Xiong.

In fact, Liverpool have used many formations this season, such as 433, 442, 4231, etc., and they have been able to switch their own team's formation according to the situation in the game.

This is one of Liverpool's stronger points.

Manchester United started today with 442.

Goalkeeper: Edwin van der Sar.

Defenders: Fabio, Ferdinand, Vidic, Evra.

Midfielders: Valencia, Carrick, Park Ji-sung, Ryan Giggs.

Forwards: Wayne Rooney, Hernandez.

Pea Hernandez's recent form was the main reason why he started ahead of Dimitar Berbatov, and United's 442 will raise concerns about whether their midfield defence can withstand Liverpool's formidable attack, and if they lose a striker and add a midfielder, it may make them more capable of fighting Liverpool in midfield.

Now that the kick-off ceremony has been held before the start of the game, let's enjoy the England national derby that takes place in the Champions League! ”

Although the Red Devils Manchester United put on a 442, it can actually be said to be a 4231, or 451 formation.

With Paul Scholes on the verge of retirement, Manchester United's midfield playmaking ability has declined, and Rooney's withdrawal has mostly had a good effect, coupled with his ability to fight, Manchester United are now using Rooney more as a playmaker up front.

Because Fabio has to face Qin Xiong on the right side of the defense, because Qin Xiong has the habit of attacking ****, he also plays left winger in Liverpool's 433 formation, so today's Manchester United's right defense is not only a fullback, but also Valencia stays more in the backfield to block Qin Xiong.

The impact on the other side is relatively low, Evra himself is very strong, even against Gerrard is not inferior to the wind is enough, if Johnson dares to rush into the assist, the Welsh veteran Ryan Giggs may teach him to be a man again.

Liverpool's side seems to play 442, in fact, it seems that what formation to play is in their minds, it is nothing more than whether the overall tacit understanding can be achieved, Gerrard can play wingers, at least there will be no rustiness and too many problems in the offensive run.

This game can be described as a needle-to-needle, and the coaches of both teams have integrated the skills and tactics of the game into the consideration of restrictions and counter-restrictions. (To be continued.) )
