Stefan Bajcetic benched; three changes made v Man Utd: Confirmed Liverpool team news
After securing 10 points from an available 12 in their last four league fixtures, optimism, if not outright confidence, has returned to the red-half of Merseyside.
Standing in the way of another significant step closer to top four football, however, are Liverpool’s renewed archrivals in Manchester United, fresh off the back of their cup victory in seven years.
It would be entirely unreasonable to suggest that the Reds should blow away the visitors in a manner similar to the thrashings administered in the prior campaign, though we equally shouldn’t be fearing Erik ten Hag’s men on the basis of our recent domestic form.

Klopp has only partially tweaked the midfield trio that secured a late 2-0 win over Wolves, with Jordan Henderson coming in for Stefan Bajcetic whilst Harvey Elliott and Fabinho retain their spots.
The German tactician has likewise made once to the forward line selected for our hosting of the Wanderers as Mo Salah, Darwin Nunez and Cody Gakpo start.
