Manchester United talisman Bruno Fernandes stands on the verge of carving his name into Premier League history.
The Portuguese playmaker has racked up a stunning 19 assists this season, leaving him just one shy of the iconic record jointly held by Thierry Henry and Kevin De Bruyne.
With four games remaining, it would be fair to back Fernandes to shatter that milestone.
Could the defining moment arrive against Liverpool under the Old Trafford lights tomorrow?
A look back at his last five encounters with the Merseyside giants offers intriguing clues.
Across those five Premier League clashes, Fernandes has contributed two assists and one goal.
The list start with a humiliating 7-0 loss for the Red Devils. The less we talk about it, better it would be for United supporters.
The Portuguese magnifico scored a sensational goal from the halfway line to bring United level after an early Luis Diaz strike during the 2-2 draw in 2024.
It remains one of those moments that will live long in the memory of United supporters.
United then hosted Liverpool to a forgettable 3-0 loss at Old Trafford in September 2024.
The next fixture against Liverpool ended in a 2-2 draw, with Fernandes claiming an assist for Lisandro Martinez’s thunderous strike.
A clever no-look reverse pass from Fernandes caught the Liverpool defence off guard, allowing Martinez to finish clinically from a tight angle.
The most recent clash came at Anfield earlier this season, where United finally ended their nine-year hoodoo.
A hard-fought 2-1 victory saw the Red Devils make a powerful statement on enemy territory.
With the game finely poised at 1-1, Fernandes once again produced a moment of brilliance.
His exquisite volleyed cross to the far post found Harry Maguire, who powered home the decisive goal.
All signs now point towards Fernandes adding one more assist to his tally tomorrow and matching the historic 20-assist mark.
Doing so against arch-rivals Liverpool and completing a rare league double would only elevate the occasion further.
