Manchester United travel without Donny van de Beek and Christian Eriksen due to injury. Anthony Martial and Luke Shaw are doubts but the latter is expected to recover in time to play.
This is always a huge game and there is a lot riding on the match in terms of the top four and the title. A win would put Liverpool back in the hunt for the top four but Manchester United are full of confidence right now and could come out on top, with under 2.5 goals scored.
