But of course, there will be only one winner at the end of 90 minutes, or at least a draw. A win for Man Utd will see them remain at the sixth spot for the umpeeth time even if Man City lose their fixture against Everton. But the red devils can rise to fifth if they win by nine goals and Man City lose by a similar margin, which sounds impossible.
Liverpool, on the other hand, need a win to rise up to the second spot on the log, but will be without their key forward Sadio Mane, who has nine goals and four assists in 19 league appearances for the reds this season. All said and done, here's a video that summarizes everything you need to know about this derby.
