Victory this weekend is of paramount importance to Liverpool<\/a> following their recent reality check, with the added bonus of bragging rights on the line for Arne Slot\u2019s side. On paper, they will be strong favourites against United<\/a>, who are still struggling for consistency under Ruben Amorim. <\/p>\n The Red Devils are still awaiting back-to-back Premier League wins under the Portuguese manager, but can get that particular monkey off their back this weekend. They won their last outing prior to the international period, producing one of the better performances of the Amorim era in their 2\u20130 win over Sunderland<\/a>. <\/p>\n But United, who have suffered some humiliating defeats to Liverpool over recent years, still understand the scale of their assignment on Sunday afternoon. A draw would likely be welcomed with open arms by Amorim and his players. <\/p>\n Here is Sports Illustrated\u2019s guide to the fixture. <\/p>\n Liverpool vs. Man Utd Head-to-Head Record (Last Five Games)Current Form (All Competitions)<\/p>\n Liverpool<\/p>\n Man Utd<\/p>\n Chelsea 2\u20131 Liverpool – 04\/10\/25<\/p>\n Man Utd 2\u20130 Sunderland – 04\/10\/25<\/p>\n Galatasaray 1\u20130 Liverpool – 30\/09\/25<\/p>\n Brentford 3\u20131 Man Utd – 27\/09\/25<\/p>\n Crystal Palace 2\u20131 Liverpool – 27\/09\/25<\/p>\n Man Utd 2\u20131 Chelsea – 20\/09\/25<\/p>\n Liverpool 2\u20131 Southampton – 23\/09\/25<\/p>\n Man City 3\u20130 Man Utd – 14\/09\/25<\/p>\n Liverpool 2\u20131 Everton – 20\/09\/25<\/p>\n Man Utd 3\u20132 Burnley – 30\/08\/25<\/p>\n Country<\/p>\n TV channel\/live stream<\/p>\n United States<\/p>\n fuboTV, nbcsports.com, NBC Sports App, Telemundo Deportes En Vivo, USA Network, Telemundo<\/p>\n United Kingdom<\/p>\n Sky Sports Main Event, Sky Sports Premier League, Sky Ultra HD, Sky GO, Sky GO Extra, NOW TV<\/p>\n Canada<\/p>\n DAZN, Amazon Prime Video, fuboTV, Fubo Sports Network<\/p>\n Mexico<\/p>\n Caliente TV, Amazon Prime Video<\/p>\n Ryan Gravenberch is available. \/ Molly Darlington\/Getty Image<\/p>\n Slot has confirmed that both Ryan Gravenberch and Ibrahima Konat\u00e9 are available this weekend <\/a>after injury scares. The former is fit despite suffering a slight hamstring injury on international duty, while the latter has recovered from a thigh issue sustained against Chelsea before the break. <\/p>\n However, Liverpool will be forced to continue without Alisson<\/a> in between the sticks, with Slot revealing he\u2019s still unavailable with injury. The Brazilian will be replaced once again by Giorgi Mamardashvili\u2014an excellent deputy. <\/p>\n Youngsters Giovanni Leoni and Stefan Baj\u010deti\u0107 are missing for the Reds, but Wataru End\u014d should be available in some capacity despite missing Japan\u2019s international friendlies. <\/p>\n Alexis Mac Allister might start on the bench this weekend after scoring twice in Argentina\u2019s rearranged friendly with Puerto Rico in the early hours of Wednesday morning. <\/p>\n Slot has to motivate his underperforming stars this weekend. \/ FotMob<\/p>\n Liverpool predicted lineup vs. Man Utd (4-2-3-1): Mamardashvili; Bradley, Konat\u00e9, Van Dijk, Kerkez; Gravenberch, Szoboszlai; Salah, Wirtz, Gakpo; Isak.<\/p>\n Noussair Mazraoui is a doubt. \/ Matt McNulty\/Getty Images<\/p>\n United don\u2019t have many injuries for the trip to Anfield, with long-term absentee Lisandro Mart\u00ednez their only guaranteed absentee on Sunday. The Argentine is close to returning to full team training<\/a> after eight months out, but is not yet ready to make his comeback. <\/p>\n Amorim has revealed he\u2019s unsure whether Noussair Mazraoui will be available for the Liverpool game, with the Morocco international having been sidelined for recent matches with club and country. <\/p>\n Ayden Heaven is a slight doubt after sustaining a knock on international duty <\/a>with England\u2019s Under-20s, but he\u2019s unlikely to feature prominently regardless of injury. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
