Liverpool team news

Joe Gomez sustained a hamstring injury in the West Ham win, while Ibrahima Konate and Conor Bradley are nearing their return from injury.

Although it is uncertain if Konate can replace Jarell Quansah alongside Virgil van Dijk at the back, Dominik Szoboszlai could earn a recall after serving his one-game ban.

Manchester United team news

Manuel Ugarte and Bruno Fernandes are back after serving their suspensions, too, while United boss Ruben Amorim could hand Kobbie Mainoo a start in midfield possibly at the cost of Joshua Zirkzee's place in the XI.

Marcus Rashford is a doubt due to illness, while Mason Mount, Victor Lindelof and Luke Shaw are unavailable for selection due to injuries.
