Jose Mourinho has taken a dig at Liverpool ahead of Manchester Uniteds clash at Anfield by calling the Reds the lucky ones.

United travel to Anfield today and start the game 16 points behind their arch rivals.

Jurgen Klopps men can regain top spot with a win against the Red Devils but the fact theyre keeping pace with Manchester City has been a success in itself.

Liverpool have needed good fortune along the way – including an injury time winner against Everton a fortnight ago.

Of course, they are very confident about themselves, said Mourinho.

They are top of the league, they have this feeling of – I know that feeling well – the feeling of the lucky ones where everything goes in your direction.

They know how they beat Everton, they know that the last match, the opening goal was offside, and they know that against Napoli in the last seconds they could be out.

They have this feeling that I also had when my teams were top of the league and it looks like everything goes in your direction.
