Team news.. Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag has dropped both Cristiano Ronaldo and Harry Maguire for tonight's clash against Liverpool -here's how they line up. MORE:
Erik ten Hag's reign at Red Devils has not gone to plan after starting the Premier League campaign with back-to-back losses, including a 4-0 loss to Brentford last weekend.
While things have been going well on the pitch, there is expected to be some drama outside Old Trafford as supporters are expected to protest against the club's owners, the Glazer family.On the pitch, Ten Hag has made the bold call to drop last season's top scorer Cristiano Ronaldo in favour of the returning Anthony Martial while club captain Harry Maguire also starts on the bench.
Liverpool, meanwhile, will also be searching for their first win of the campaign after starting the season with successive draws against newly promoted Fulham and Crystal Palace. Jurgen Klopp will be without big-money signing Darwin Nunez who was sent off against Palace last week, while Thiago Alcantara and Joel Matip are also missing this evening.
Despite their slow start, the Reds still enter the encounter as favourites, especially after thrashed United 5-0 in this fixture last season while the reverse fixture ended 4-0 at Anfield.De Gea, Dalot, Martinez, Varane, Malacia, Fernandes, Eriksen, McTominay, Sancho, Elanga, RashordAlisson, Alexander-Arnold, Van Dijk, Gomez, Robertson, Henderson, Milner, Elliot, Diaz, Salah, Firmino
