Manchester United’s amazing comeback against Crystal Palace has set them up perfectly for Liverpool’s visit to Old Trafford this weekend, according to Nemanja Matic.
“It’s going to give us a lot of confidence because when you win the game it’s always easier to go in to the next one,” Matic said.
“It’s always important to win, especially when you have derby games coming up. I’m happy that we go in to the Liverpool game with these three points.”
And Matic insists the clash with Liverpool represents another chance to show they can challenge champions-elect Manchester City for next season’s title.
“I think we are improving, we need to do more for sure because in small games we drop some very important points and you can’t lose these types of points,” he added.
“If you look at Leicester away when we concede in the last second and we lost to Huddersfield away and in these type of games if we manage to win we can compete for the title of course.
“The quality is there for sure but we have to be honest we have to do more because in this league every team is very strong. Five or six teams can realistically compete for the title.
“I hope that next season and the end of this season we will learn from our mistakes and do better but I think we are in a good way.”
