Storylines

Manchester United: The win over Chelsea was a great bounce-back following the loss to PSG in the Champions League. It reconfirmed the quality of this team under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, but now here’s a big test. As rivals, this is an opportunity for Solskjaer to make a case as to why he should get the full-time coaching job. A win here could be just the statement the higher-ups needs. 

Liverpool: Liverpool has some injuries at the back and is coming off the match against Bayern Munich in the Champions League. While this will be a tricky test, United is coming off an emotional 2-0 win at Chelsea on Monday. Both teams will probably feel a bit tired entering this one, and that bodes better for Liverpool due to having more depth than the Red Devils.
