MUN vs LIV Live Score: Manchester United faces Liverpool this weekend and there cannot be a better time to unleash the Ronaldo-Cavani combination.
Manchester United showed immense grit and desire to get back from 2-0 down to beat Atalanta 3-2 in the Champions League in mid-week.
While Ronaldo eventually grabbed the headline. Edinson Cavani was at it in the second half as he made a difference once again.

The Uruguayan has been used sparingly this season and has mostly played as a substitute ever since Ronaldo made the move from the Bienconeri in the last week of the transfer window.
For the effort put in by Cavani in the second half against Atalanta, he must be rewarded with a start against Liverpool on Sunday.
The two experienced campaigners have the capability of causing mayhem when on song and the game against Liverpool is the opportunity to do the same.
Gary Neville on how United should set up tactically:
“I like Cavani. Do you know what, I’d stick Cavani and Ronaldo up front and play two up and play a narrow midfield four.” pic.twitter.com/YUYVZ4kafl

United’s number 21 has provided plenty with his pressing ability as was visible in the 2-1 win over Villarreal
He also provided the slightest of touches in the second goal from Maguire during mid-week.
All these instances prove that the Ronaldo-Cavani partnership needs to be unleashed this time.
United have been off the pace in the EPL and need a turnaround starting this week.
The two players can feed off of each other’s energy and are capable of creating plenty problems.
It is about the United boss, Ole getting them to play together.

Rashford has recently returned from injury while Greenwood has dropped off in recent weeks.
This is the potential chance in a crucial fixture for Man United to go with both their quality strike-men.

The Red Devils can use a 4-2-2-2 formation with either Ronaldo or Cavani drifting wide.
With all that has gone on this season, this is the moment Ole Gunnar Solskjær’s technical ability as United boss comes into the fore.
