Club legend Neville insists Man Utd's biggest game of the season against Liverpool

Gary Neville has insisted that Manchester United's game against Liverpool this weekend represents their toughest test of the season so far.

The Red Devils will enter the game with the upper hand considering that they are a team who are in top form and are behind log leaders Manchester City only on goal difference with the two clubs locked on 19 points each.

"This is the biggest game of the season for Manchester United for two reasons," Neville told Sky Sports.

"Firstly, Anfield away is the ultimate test, mentally and physically with the intensity.

"There's obviously less home grown talent but the atmosphere will be brilliant and it is a game which you dare not lose as a player.

"I was never excited about going to Anfield. There was always too much at stake. You only got excited when you won there.

"It is also the biggest game because United have played a lot of the lower teams, so this is their first real test.

"This game, in some ways, defines how they are set up for a tough run of upcoming fixtures, with Tottenham and Chelsea also coming in the next four Premier League games."
