Liverpool vs United - what result suits us best?

A draw is easily the best result. I think that's what it'll be, too. We beat Palace, we leapfrog Liverpool, and are one point behind United, with a game in hand and a better goal difference.
If pushed, I'd opt for a United victory. I'm worried about Liverpool coming good later in the season. United are as good as they're ever going to be. Which is to say, not all that.
 
Who gives a fuck? We're the best team in the land and we're going to win the league regardless!

There, I've cursed us.

Prediction: 0-0; Klopp sent off for being an arse at last.
 
Draw. If not a Liverpool win. United winning and going 6 points clear will get them a hell of a lot of confidence and momentum and they have a very winnable looking game against Fulham next.

Fair enough. But think of how we beat them the other night. We beat them with something in the tank — never at our best. At their gaff. We were disciplined, we kept them at arm's length, and then put them to the sword on set pieces. Almost as an afterthought. And let no-one tell you that getting to a final didn't count for them. It did, and it hurt.
And that team is going to win the league?

They'd be 6 points ahead of Liverpool but we'd be their nearest challengers, 7 points behind but with 2 games in hand.
If Liverpool win they are back in the race and a much more difficult challenge than United.
The sooner Liverpool drop out of the title race the better.
Get rid of them first and then start clawing back the points off United.
