Manchester United team news
Matheus Cunha is likely to be available for the game after recovering from a hip flexor problem which caused him to sit out the Brentford win on Monday. There are reportedly doubts over Luke Shaw and Benjamin Sesko.
Matthijs de Ligt is still unavailable with a back injury, while Lisandro Martinez is suspended. Patrick Dorgu returned to the bench against the Bees.
Liverpool team news
Mohamed Salah won’t be fit for Liverpool, and Freddie Woodman looks set to continue deputising for Alisson Becker between the sticks. Alexander Isak has been ruled out for two weeks and will miss the game.
What both managers have said
Carrick has spoken about his excitement ahead of one of English football’s fiestiest fixtures. It’s a game he played in plenty of times during his career:
“It’s certainly one of my favourite games, without doubt. It’s a standout game. I think there’s obviously big games and big rivalries that we have with other teams but certainly this one is right up there.
He added:
“The history, the ups and downs that past has produced in these type of game, and the excitement, entertainment and emotion, which is a huge part of it, makes it a really special game.”
Meanwhile Arne Slot who is set to continue in charge at Anfield next season said:
“Every game you play has influence on your league position. So that’s not only when you play Man United, it’s every week in every game. But we are aware of the fact that it’s a very big game, not only because we play Man United, but definitely also to qualify for the Champions League and to get the highest possible position in the league table, which of course is something we want.”
United beat Liverpool at Anfield in the reverse fixture, winning 2-1 in October. A repeat of that would mean a return to the Champions League.
