Manchester United midfielder Juan Mata says he is hoping his side can produce good football when they play Liverpool at Anfield on Monday.

The 28-year-old says the Red Devils can expect an intense and enticing clash against their Premier League rivals but adds that he hopes United will come out on top with a positive result.

‘The truth is that I have played several times at Anfield already, with good and bad results, but I prefer to remember those good and exciting moments that I have lived in this stadium over the last few years,’ Juan said on his official blog.

‘These games are always very intense and thrilling, with a big dose of adrenaline. I hope we can see good football and get a good score for us.’

The Spanish midfielder says it is an honour for him to participate in a match of this caliber and he will be hoping to make Red Devils supporters proud when they travel to Anfield.

‘Of course, we feel privileged for being part of this kind of game where tradition and rivalry go far back in time, and we will try our best to make our fans happy,’ he added.
