'We need to make sure we convert more chances'

Barry Lewtas remains confident his Liverpool U23s side will soon rediscover their scoring touch as the season progresses.

The young Reds are in Premier League 2 action tonight when they face Manchester United in a behind-closed-doors fixture at Leigh Sports Village, with kick-off set for 7pm BST.

After beginning their league campaign with a win over Everton, Lewtas’ charges suffered a 2-1 loss at Derby County last Friday when a failure to convert good chances cost them.

An U21s group led by Lewtas then suffered a 6-1 loss to a strong Wigan Athletic XI in the EFL Trophy group stage earlier this week.
