The Red Devils make the journey to Anfield on Monday night to face Jurgen Klopp’s in-form Liverpool.
After a bright start saw Man United win their opening three league games under Mourinho, they have laboured recently in taking just four points from four games.
They were held at home by winless Stoke last time out, increasing the pressure on the Portuguese ahead of what looks sure to be powder-keg clash on Merseyside.
The Black Cats have managed to garner just two points so far since Moyes replaced Sam Allardyce in the summer.
They are bottom of the table and on Saturday they travel to face Stoke City, the only other club in the top flight without a win.
I’d love to get that first win under our belts so that we could start to look up.
David Moyes
Sunderland are 10/3 to get their breakthrough victory against Mark Hughes’ men and, according to Moyes, it doesn’t matter how they achieve victory – as long as it comes soon.
