Jurgen Klopp and Erik ten Hag face off again in the FA Cup

Paul Higham has been beavering away in all the special markets available for Man Utd v Liverpool to select his best five Bet Builders, including two huge [33/1] and [40/1] stats-based multiples.


The big games keep on coming as now old rivals Man Utd and Liverpool face off in an FA Cup quarter-final at Old Trafford.

Jurgen Klopp's side are still chasing four trophies, and after hitting Sparta Prague for six they're in top form with Mohamed Salah returning with a bang.

Meanwhile, Erik ten Hag would love to shut a few people up by knocking their arch enemies out en route to pocketing a trophy.

For us here, though, we'll cover every result and throw in a couple of value plays in our regular five big game Bet Builders...

Red Devils to rule Bet Builder

The 3/14.00 on a Man Utd win looks a big price for last season's finalists, who have beaten Liverpool in 10 of their 14 FA Cup meetings and also beat them on their last trip to Old Trafford last season.

The last FA Cup meeting also went United's way in January 2021 and with Liverpool having played Thursday then the hosts will surely have a better chance then they're being given.

What they will need to do is score at least two though as Liverpool have scored in every away game this season - and Bruno Fernandes is usually good for a goal in the FA Cup.

He's 7/24.50 to score anytime here and after five goals in his last six FA Cup ties that's a tasty price.

Back Man Utd win, both teams to score & Fernandes anytime scorer @ 13/114.00

Reds shoot for victory Bet Builder

The Reds are 3/41.75 favourites to win and keep Jurgen Klopp's farewell tour rolling on to the semis - and we'll couple that with the 29/202.45 on over 3.5 goals - which has landed in five of the last seven meetings.

Mo Salah to score anytime at 13/102.30 seems almost inevitable given he's got 12 in 13 games against Utd, including two in the last FA Cup meeting.

But what's adding our value here is the 7/24.50 on Liverpool to have 9+ shots on target in the game, which although Utd have only allowed twice this season sets up nicely here.

As the Red Devils have faced 20+ shots a whopping 10 times this season, while only Sheffield United have conceded more efforts on goal in the Premier League - showing just how easy it is to get at United's goal.

Liverpool hit the target eight times at Anfield in the league game but Utd will have to attack more here which could leave the visitors more space - and the Reds have hit the target 10+ times in seven of their last 12 matches.

Back Liverpool win & over 9+ shots on target, over 3.5 goals & Salah to score @ 14/115.00

Going the distance Bet Builder

With this tie being decided on the day, with extra time and penalties if needed, it brings the draw at 3/14.00 firmly into play.

And after the league meeting at Anfield Man Utd have now failed to score in six of their last nine meetings with Liverpool, and if they look to stifle the visitors again we could have a real scrap on our hands.

Under 2.5 goals comes in at 29/202.45 as it's not overly fancied, and there's definite card potential with over 4.5 cards possibly even a bit conservative after the eight we had at Anfield.

And a bet I really like here is Utd to have more cards at 5/61.84 - as they've done just that in the last six meetings.

Back the draw, under 2.5 goals, over 4.5 cards & Man Utd most cards @ 17/118.00

Bumper Man Utd stats Bet Builder

Bruno Fernandes and Alejandro Garnacho are the main men for Man Utd attacking-wise - and they're both 15/82.88 for a goal or assist - but Bruno gets the nod as he's landed one or the other in his last three.

We will back Garnacho 1+ shot on target though, at 5/61.84. He's had 24 this season, none in his last three but had two attempts at Anfield and he's improved since then.

You just can't ignore Casemiro either, who has struggled a bit of late, and with Liverpool's midfield full of energy, back the Brazilian for 2+ fouls at 4/51.80 as those ageing legs could struggle again.

It's two goals in two for Marcus Rashford and he's 13/53.60 for another, but I'd rather temper expectations with 1+ shot on target for him - at a price I don't mind at 4/71.57

Scott McTominay has had just one shot on target less than Rashford this season, and Liverpool give you chances, so the 1/12.00 on the Scotsman to hit the target is worth adding also as we look to build a big bet here.

We've got a big 23/124.00 shot there, but we want more, and an underrated bet might just be the 4/61.67 on Man Utd's keeper to make 4+ saves - especially given the amount of shots they've given up this season as we've mentioned.

Andre Onana has his critics, but he's saved 100% of the shots on target faced in two of his last three, where he's made 6, 5 and 5 saves. He also saved all eight shots on target he faced at Anfield.

Back Fernandes goal or assist, McTominay, Rashford, Garnacho 1+ shots target, Casemiro 2+ fouls, Man U keeper 4+ fouls @ 40/141.00

Salah & deadly Darwin Bet Builder

Liverpool have had eight different goalscorers in this year's FA Cup, but their main men Mohamed Salah and Darwin Nunez should be their leading lights at Old Trafford.

Nunez has gone to another level of late and is just 10/111.91 for a goal or assist, but we'll opt for the 13/102.30 on 2+ shots on target, which he's managed in six of his last nine starts.

Luis Diaz and Alexis Mac Allister got the night off on Thursday and have been two of Liverpool's best performers of late, so we'll take them to come back with a bang.

Mac Allister is the man to back in the fouls markets - he's given the most away in the Liverpool squad, with at least one in his last seven games, while he's also been fouled at least twice in four of five.

He's 4/51.80 to be fouled twice, and given his recent involvement going forward, take the 7/52.40 on him having just 1+ shot on target.

And Harvey Elliott can complete our extensive Bet Builder - he played just 45 minutes on Thursday so should get a decent run out here and he's been excellent of late. A shot on target at 4/61.67 should be no problem.

Back Salah goal or assist, Nunez 2+ shots on target, Mac Allister fouled 2+ times, Mac Allister, Diaz, Elliott 1+ shots on target @ 33/134.00
