Live updates from Old Trafford as Man United take on Liverpool in their third Premier League game of the season.
Manchester United will be targeting a return to winning ways when they welcome Liverpool to Old Trafford this afternoon, kick-off 4pm., who are unbeaten in their last three meetings with the Merseysiders, were beaten 2-1 by Brighton & Hove Albion at the Amex Stadium last time out. Joao Pedro netted a last-gasp winner afterThe Reds had won their Premier League opener against Fulham at Old Trafford eight days earlier, sealing a 1-0 victory via a late goal from Joshua Zirkzee.
If he makes it three wins out of three this afternoon, he will become the first Liverpool manager since Bob Paisley in November 1975 to win his first meeting with United."Having made two appearances via the bench, Joshua Zirkzee will be determined to lead United's attack. Should he get the nod, much of the focus will be on who starts either side of him.
Ahead of this afternoon's encounter, here is a quick reminder of the last five meetings between the two clubs:With Mason Mount out through injury, it is expected that Bruno Fernandes will drop back into a more familar midfield role after recently operating as a 'false nine', opening up a window of opportunity for Joshua Zirkzee to bag his first start for the club.
Maguire has performed well and has two games under his belt, so it would be inadvisable to drop him and give De Ligt his full debut in such an important game against Liverpool.
