Liverpool FC failed to recapture the top of the table in the Premier League top match against direct rivals Manchester United.

The two arch-rivals split 0-0 in Anfield.

For the Reds it was the fourth league game in a row without a win and the third without a goal.

In the table, Liverpool slipped behind Leicester City, who had defeated Southampton FC on Saturday.

Jürgen Klopp's team had more play and fired more shots on goal, but acted too harmlessly overall.

Especially in the first half of the game, there were hardly any compelling chances.

After the half-time break, however, both teams became more dangerous in attack and had a good chance of victory.

Paul Pogba failed with a shot at Liverpool goalkeeper Alisson in the 83rd minute.

So it stayed at 0-0, with which neither of the two teams was really satisfied.

"We are a bit disappointed that we didn't get the three points at home," said Liverpool captain Jordan Henderson.

United coach Ole Gunnar Solskjaer made a similar statement.

"Given the chances we had, it was a missed opportunity," said the coach.

After all, Solskjaer's Red Devils are two points ahead of first place and have also been unbeaten in 16 league games.

Defending champion Liverpool, on the other hand, urgently need to overcome their goal doldrums in order not to be left behind in the championship race.

Tottenham and Chelsea win

Previously, Tottenham Hotspur had prevailed on Sunday 3-1 (2-0) against the bottomed-out Sheffield United.

Serge Aurier (5th minute), Harry Kane (40th) and Tanguy Ndombele (62nd) with a dream goal ensured that the Spurs also continue to mix in the top flight of the Premier League.

Chelsea FC, on the other hand, threatens to lose touch.

The Blues struggled to a 1-0 win at Fulham on Saturday.

Mason Mount (78th) scored the late winner.

Striker Timo Werner was only used in the closing stages and missed the chance to make it 2-0.

Coach Frank Lampard encouraged the currently weak German national player.

“He just has to keep working, that's the only way out of it.” Kai Havertz stayed on the bench.
