Based on their current standings United need to win all their remaining six games to guarantee a top 4 finish and thereby qualify to play the UEFA Champions League next season.

The scenes are completely different for the Merseyside Reds. Liverpool are currently chasing a quadruple and are just a solitary point behind Manchester City in the Premier League standings.
“It’s up to us,” said Rangnick. “We definitely will travel there tomorrow and try and get three points, this is what it’s all about. It’s about our situation.”
“After the results we are still in the race for fourth, but to stay in it we have to win almost every game. We might be the underdogs for most people but if we raise our level we have a chance.”
💭 “We need to be more compact and find a better balance of what can we do in possession of the ball and what we need to do to defend our goal,” Ralf adds.
“We must be at our very best defensively but still have an approach to the game where we can be a threat.”#MUFC | #LIVMUN

“You can see other teams are dropping points at the weekend. It’s again about being consistent and at the end the team will probably finish fourth that is most committed to that.”

“We need to be more compact and find a better balance of what we can do in possession of the ball. We need to be more aggressive, more on the front foot but make sure we have all the players behind the ball.”
“This is what we need to show against one of the best teams in producing chances and creating moments around the box. We need to be on our very best defensively.”
