Published on October 17, 2019, Liverpool defender Andy Robertson has cautioned his team-mates that Manchester United will not be an easy opponent when the two teams face off in a Premier League clash on Sunday, October 20.
Robertson's warning comes at a time when Manchester United are struggling for form, having picked just two wins in eight matches of the new season.
Despite Liverpool's impressive form, topping the standings with 24 points after winning all their eight league matches, Robertson believes that form will count for nothing when the two teams face off.
"I don’t think it matters what your form is like in these games. It doesn’t matter that we’ve won eight on the bounce and they’re struggling. It’s Man United v Liverpool. It will be a one-off game and we’ll see who comes out on top," Metro UK quoted the Scotland captain saying.
Robertson also warned that Manchester United could use the match to return to winning ways in their push to get their campaign back on track.
"I have no doubt that they’ll produce a reaction after a poor performance against Newcastle. I’m absolutely sure that they will be firing and wanting to kick-start their season. For them, there would be no better time to do it than against us," he added.
