Liverpool take on Manchester United on Sunday as they look to bag bragging rights over the Red Devils for the rest of the season.

Jurgen Klopp has engineered a side that has gone 38 Premier League games unbeaten, but the only points they dropped this campaign were against United at Old Trafford.

That should inspire the lads to bag three points this weekend and extend the lead at the top of the log and emphasis how far the gap has grown between the two sides.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer could be without the services of Marcus Rashford, who came off the bench against Wolves in the FA Cup but was taken off just 15 minutes later with an injury.

Liverpool are not without their own injury problems but things seem to be clearing up at this stage. Dejan Lovren and Joel Matip have been long-term casualties, but they appear to be nearing fitness and will play a part in the season going forward.

United do have some good players though, and the Reds will need to get the better of their counterparts. Sadio Mane will be aiming to get the better of Aaron Wan-Bissaka, but click through the slides to read the other key battles.
