On Saturday, Man United lock horns with bitter rivals Liverpool. The two most successful English clubs will reignite their feud when they face off in the early kick-off.
A win will do wonders for both sides. This is the Red Devils’ first top-six clash, and failure to win could see them lose ground in the title race to neighbors Man City.
Unfortunately, Jose Mourinho’s side were hit with an early blow. The 20-time league champions announced their lineup for the Anfield game as usual, but with two key absentees.

Whilst it was no kept secret that Pogba and Fellaini were going to miss the game, two unexpected aces were also absent from Saturday’s. They are Eric Bailly and Marcus Rashford.
Mourinho revealed the reason (via the club's official website) shortly after announcing his starting XI. The culprit is the international break, as both players picked up knocks whilst with their national sides.
Luckily for Rashford, despite being withdrawn from England’s clash with Lithuania, he was able to make the bench. Bailly, on the other hand, will be on the sidelines after suffering an “unspecified problem” whilst with Ivory Coast.
This will be a huge blow to Man United’s defense, as they aim to stop Liverpool’s speedy attack. Luckily, the Special One has Mata; Martial; and Lukaku to score goals past the Merseyside giants.
