Graeme Souness thinks Manchester United beating Liverpool in the Premier League fixture on Sunday afternoon would be the biggest top-flight football upset in six years.
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side take on Liverpool at Old Trafford this weekend as they look to kick-start their season after an abject start to the league campaign.
United go into the match 14th in the Premier League and already a staggering 15 points behind league leaders Liverpool ahead of the encounter.
Star midfielder Paul Pogba is also set to miss the match through injury and Liverpool legend Souness does not believe Solskjaer's side have any hope ahead of the match.
Not only that, but Souness thinks United beating Liverpool would be the biggest upset since Wigan beat Man City in the 2013 FA Cup Final.
"If Manchester United beat Liverpool at Old Trafford today, it will be the biggest upset in top-flight football since Manchester City lost to Wigan in the 2013 FA Cup final," he wrote in the Sunday Times.
"I’m not saying that for the effect, I’m not saying it because I’m an ex-Liverpool player.
"I’m saying that because that’s what all the relevant indicators signify: the strength on paper of the respective squads; the fitness of key players (Paul Pogba out for United and maybe David de Gea too); the fact that Jurgen Klopp knows his best starting XI and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer clearly doesn’t; and recent form — eight league wins out of eight for Liverpool, just one win from their past seven for their opponents."
