Gary Neville and Jamie Carragher predict that Manchester United will finish the Premier League season in the top four.
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s team ranked third in the table at Christmas with one game down after their 6-2 beating of Leeds United at the weekend.
That victory continued United’s seven-game unbeaten streak, leaving them one point behind second-ranked Leicester City after playing one game less after their delay in the start of the season.
Three points in their game in hand would leave United just two behind champion Liverpool, which was unthinkable after they collected three points in their first three league games.
On the last Monday Night Football of the season, both Neville and Carragher were asked about their title and the four best predictions.
Despite key injuries, both experts said Liverpool would win the league, with City and United in the top three.
“I said they were going to do it at the beginning of the season,” Neville said of the possibility of Liverpool winning the league. “That moment around Villa, Van Dijk got injured, I thought it might be interesting, but they have calmed down.” .
Manchester United faced Leeds in their first Premier League match in 16 years.
The Reds won 6-2 at Old Trafford, after being put on track by two goals from Scott McTominay in the first three minutes. More punches from Bruno Fernandes, Victor Lindelof and Daniel James completed the hammering of Pennine’s cross rivals.
They then continue their Carabao Cup campaign when they face Everton at Goodison Park in the quarterfinals.

“They will have bumps, they didn’t have them last season, but I think they will definitely get there.”
Speaking about the rest of the top four, Neville continued: “I think City and United will definitely finish in the top three. I think it will be Chelsea or Tottenham and it is the toss of a coin ”.
Carragher agreed: “I think United [finish in the top four]Their attacking power is simply fantastic, you look at the bench on weekends, they have a very strong squad and you always want them to score goals in games.
“I think they will be there or there.”
