Liverpool have lost their place at the top of the table after failing to beat Southampton, Newcastle, West Brom and Brighton in the last few matches.

It will be interesting to see if they can make amends and pick up all three points against their bitter rivals on Sunday.

The Reds will be without Van Dijk, Gomez, Matip, Jota and Tsimikas due to injuries. Naby Keita is expected to return to the first-team fold. 

Possible Liverpool Line-ups:

Alisson Becker; Trent Alexander-Arnold, Fabinho, Nat Phillips, Andrew Robertson; Jordan Henderson, Gini Wijnaldum, Thiago Alcantara; Sadio Mane, Roberto Firmino, Mohamed Salah 

Manchester United

The Red Devils have been quite outstanding away from home this season, and they have managed to win seven of their last eight outings on their travels.

They will be hoping to pull further clear at the top of the table with a win over Liverpool, and they will certainly fancy their chances against a stuttering Liverpool side.

Marcos Rojo and Phil Jones are the only injury worries for the away side.

Possible Manchester United Line-ups:

David de Gea; Aaron Wan-Bissaka, Eric Bailly, Harry Maguire, Luke Shaw; Scott McTominay, Fred, Paul Pogba; Bruno Fernandes, Anthony Martial, Marcus Rashford.

Betting Odds

Prediction

Both teams are capable of picking up a win here, and they will be desperate to secure all three points. Liverpool are formidable at home, and Manchester United have been outstanding away from home. 

They are likely to cancel each other out this weekend.
