Liverpool make the short trip to Manchester United on April 7 as they aim to maintain their Premier League title challenge this weekend.

Jurgen Klopp's side follow rivals Manchester City and Arsenal on the schedule and the Reds will need a positive result at the home of their fiercest rivals.

United's incredible late rally secured a 4-3 FA Cup quarterfinal win over Liverpool last month, and Klopp will need a response to that from his players, as the title race continues to intensify.

The Sporting News looks at the key details ahead of this game, including how to watch it worldwide, kickoff times and the latest lineup news.

Man United vs Liverpool lineups, team news

Erik ten Hag has received an injury boost in defence with Raphael Varane, Harry Maguire and Jonny Evans all fit to play if needed for the hosts. Mason Mount could also continue his return to full fitness with a start.

Liverpool's injury list is showing some signs of easing up with Andrew Robertson and Curtis Jones back in contention to start. However, Alisson Becker, Diogo Jota and Trent Alexander-Arnold are still another week away from a comeback.

Liverpool predicted XI (4-3-3, right to left): Kelleher (GK) — Bradley, Konate, Van Dijk, Robertson — Szboszlai, Endo, Mac Allister — Salah, Nunez, Diaz.

Man United vs Liverpool prediction

This clash could have a crucial impact on United's push for a top-four spot and Liverpool's title charge. Klopp has enjoyed some eye-catching wins over United in recent seasons, but this clash could be tighter with the pressure increased.

However, with just one Premier League loss since the start of 2024, Liverpool are justifiably strong favourites to get the three points they need to fight on with City and Arsenal.

Prediction: Man United 1-2 Liverpool
