class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>With the Reds misfiring in front of goal, Al Hain-Cole is backing Solskjaer's star man to come up with the goods once again in a heavyweight clash
Liverpool will be desperate for their famous front three to rediscover their cutting edge when Manchester United visit Anfield in Sunday’s Premier League clash.
The Reds have seen their form fall off a cliff edge recently, taking just two points from the last three league matches and scoring just once in the process.
Having scored five goals in four matches prior to that three-game barren run, Mohamed Salah can be backed at 3/1 (4.00) with bet365 to return to form at just the right moment by opening the scoring against the old rivals.
Despite his mini slump, the Egyptian star remains the top scorer in the league with 13 goals from 16 matches and is a narrow 4/5 (1.80) to strike anytime.
Sadio Mane was the last player to hit the net in the league for Jurgen Klopp’s men and offers slightly better value at 11/10 (2.10) – having also struck twice in the 4-1 FA Cup win over an Aston Villa youth team.
Roberto Firmino’s goal-scoring form has been a concern for a while after a return of just five goals in 24 competitive fixtures this campaign, but he can be backed at 6/4 (2.50) to deliver here.
In contrast, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is blessed with a number of in-form attackers who will be in confident spirits after nine wins and no defeats in 11 league matches, with Bruno Fernandes the pick of the bunch.
The Portuguese playmaker has transformed the Red Devils since joining last January and looks an excellent value first goalscorer bet at 7/1 (8.00) after scoring 19 goals from 30 league starts – not to mention 2/1 (3.00) anytime odds.
Marcus Rashford is another tempting proposition at those same 2/1 (3.00) anytime odds, having scored five times in his last eight league appearances to make it 14 goals in 22 competitive starts in all competitions.
Anthony Martial memorably scored on his debut against Liverpool back in 2015 and will also fancy his chances of paying out at 2/1 (3.00) considering the hosts’ defensive absentees at Anfield.
