Manchester United manager Erik Ten Hag gave rest to Raphael Varane, Lisandro Martinez, and Casemrio in the match against West Ham United. However, the trio is ready for Sunday night clash against Liverpool. Luke Shaw was absent in this match, but he might return today.

As for Liverpool, manager Jurgen Klopp provided the team news. Midfielder Thiago Alcantara and forward Luis Diaz are still injured. Joel Gomez is also unavailable for the match against Manchester United. However, Darwin Nunez and Ibrahima Konate are back from the injury.

Klopp on Marcus Rashford

Manchester United forward Marcus Rashford is having his career-best season. Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp also appreciated Rashford. He said, “It’s pretty much impossible to be happy about something positive at Manchester United when you are the Liverpool manager, but I’m obviously really happy about Rashford." “He obviously had a really difficult last year where he was not performing on the level he’s able to perform. This will change again but sometimes in life you don’t have enough time to change but now he’s playing incredible – the speed, the technique, the mix of everything. How calm he is now in front of the goal. He scores worldies and he scores the simple ones, he’s there and he puts his head in," Klopp added.

Our Prediction: Man United 2-1 Liverpool

Manchester United already secured their first silverware, Carabao Cup, after a long six years. They also have eliminated FC Barcelona from the UEFA Europa League. So the confidence is there for Manchester United. If everything goes well, Manchester United should win this game.
