Manchester United are preparing for a crucial Premier League clash against Liverpool at Anfield after the October international break, hoping to overturn years of frustration on Merseyside as per reports from Man Utd News.
The Red Devils have endured a dreadful run at Anfield, failing to record a win since 2016.
Their struggles in front of goal have been particularly glaring, with just three goals scored in several visits over the past eight years.
This time, attention will be on Benjamin Sesko, who has found form at a critical moment.
The Slovenian forward has scored twice in his last two outings, both from close range, reaffirming his natural instincts inside the box.
Should Sesko find the net, he would become the first United striker since Wayne Rooney in 2016 to score at Anfield.
The last forward to do so before Rooney was Robin van Persie, who netted a decisive penalty in 2012.
Sesko’s recent performances have shown promise, combining physicality with determination and serving as a reliable focal point for United’s attack.
Victory at Anfield on October 19 could prove transformative not only for Sesko’s growing confidence but also for manager Ruben Amorim, whose tenure will face increasing pressure if United falter again.
A win would move the Red Devils within two points of their fierce rivals, reigniting their league ambitions.
