Liverpool v Manchester United Team News

The history of the confrontation between the two most titled clubs in England in all competitive tournaments reaches 199 matches, with 65 wins to the name of the Merseyside giants and 80 victories in the asset of the Mancunians (W64 D54 L80) with a total score of 252:275.

It's been more than four years since the Reds last won over their age-old rival from Manchester at Anfield (1-0, 1 September 2013). During that season at the heart of Brendan Rogers' team shone Steven Gerrard, Daniel Sturridge and Luis Suarez. This trio would sweep away everyone and everything getting in their path, and from match to match led the team to more and more new triumphs.

Now the main characters of the Merseyside giants who are leading the line are Mohamed Salah (4 goals), Sadio Mane (3, currently injured) and Roberto Firmino (2).

Certainly, a Jose Mourinho side will face a more difficult game. Now that when the United injury list includes Paul Pogba, Romelu Lukaku, Marouane Fellaini, Phil Jones, Michael Carrick and the returned Zlatan Ibrahimovic to the Old Trafford, all the Portuguese manager has to do is to rely on second-choice players who should be eager to get some game time.

Teams' Possible Starting Lineups:

Liverpool: Simon Mignolet - Alberto Moreno, Dejan Lovren, Joel Matip, Joseph Gomez - Georginio Wijnaldum, Jordan Henderson, Emre Can - Philippe Coutinho, Roberto Firmino, Mohamed Salah (4-3-3 formation)

Manchester United: David de Gea - Antonio Valencia, Eric Bailly, Chris Smalling, Ashley Young - Nemanja Matic, Ander Herrera - Juan Mata, Henrikh Mkhitaryan, Marcus Rashford - Romelu Lukaku (4-2-3-1 formation)

Missing Players of Liverpool and Manchester United:

Liverpool: Adam Lallana, Adam Bogdan and Nathaniel Clyne have still been ruled out for this season's perceived biggest game of rivals Liverpool and Man United with injuries and as Sadio Mane didn't pass fit after returning from the recent international break with a minor thigh problem.

Manchester United: Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Paul Pogba, Marcos Rojo and Marouane Fellaini are the ones who are making the injury list before the trip to Liverpool, but Michael Carrick and Phil Jones will be assessed come the matchday.

Conclusion and Match Preview:

Even despite having his superstar squad, Jose Mourinho is now faced with the fact of being forced to make changes to the starting line-up for the upcoming clash at Liverpool. Truly enough it makes Jurgen Klopp's outfit more of the favourite side ahead of Saturday's opener. In favour of the hosts also speaks championship motivation. After all, sitting in seventh, the Merseyside club are already seven points adrift of the two pacemakers of the title race.
