Bruno Fernandes, Marcus Rashford and Fred are Manchester United's doubts for the Liverpool visit. The three stars sustained knocks during the Champions League game against Atalanta at Old Trafford on Wednesday.

Although Anthony Martial is available, his international counterpart Raphael Varane is unavailable due to a groin injury.

Liverpool's Curtis Jones - after joining training in midweek - is expected back after missing games against Watford and Atletico Madrid in the Champions League since he was injured while turning out for England U21.

Meanwhile, Thiago Alcantara will miss the Old Trafford trip as he is nursing an injury to his calf and the Spaniard is expected to be out for a month.

Manchester United shipped four goals in a home Premier League game for only the fifth time in last season’s encounter with Liverpool, losing 4-2. The last team to score four-plus goals in consecutive top-flight visits to Manchester United was Burnley in 1961-62 winning 4-1 and in 1962-63 won 5-2.

Each of Roberto Firmino’s last 10 Premier League goals for Liverpool have come away from home. In the competition’s history, only three players have had longer such runs – Ryan Giggs (13 between 2001 and 2003), Harry Kane (13 in 2017) and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer (11 in 2002).
