Match Preview and Metrics

Matchweek three of the Premier League season presents a battle of the two most successful English clubs, in terms of trophies accumulated, when Manchester Utd host Liverpool on Sunday, pitting two very different Dutchmen - both in terms of personality and footballing philosophy - against one another.

Slot and ten Hag resume a rivalry that spanned four matches in Holland with both coaches sharing two wins each, with Slot’s AZ Alkmaar completing the league double over ten Hag’s Ajax during the 2019/20 season but ten Hag’s Ajax came out on top in the two De Klassiekers - the biggest fixture in Dutch football - during the 2021/22 campaign when Slot was in charge of Feyenoord.
