John Barnes has backed Liverpool to end Manchester United's unbeaten run in the Premier League this weekend.
The Reds have endured a frustrating start to the season and are already several points behind the Manchester clubs who are at the top of the standings.
Barnes however feels that his former club will cause an upset this weekend and said: "Why I think Liverpool will win this is because of what Liverpool have demonstrated against all of the top five teams, apart from Manchester City when they went down to ten men and lost 5-0.
"They have had the upper hand against all of the top five teams because of the nature of the way those games are played. They are very open, they are very attack-minded - whereby one team attacks and leaves the defence to defend for themselves.
"If you go head-to-head with Liverpool rather than sitting in deep and defending in numbers to stop Mane, Salah, Firmino, you come a cropper and that is what has happened to Arsenal, Chelsea, Tottenham, Manchester United.
"If they go all-out attack against Liverpool, which they are under pressure do because they are Man United and they are top of the league, then I think Liverpool will win."
