Manchester United vs Liverpool, Premier League

Mohamed Salah is omitted from Liverpool's matchday squad for Manchester United vs Liverpool, which kicked off at 3.30pm BST. Lineups circulating before kick-off confirm Liverpool are starting without Salah and list Manchester United's selections, with live text commentary and match stats tracking both sides. Salah has been one of Liverpool's leading scorers this season, so his absence forces tactical adjustments to Liverpool's attack for this high-stakes rivalry match. That matters because the Manchester United, Liverpool fixture can swing Premier League positions and affect title and top-four dynamics for the weekend.

Sir Alex Ferguson was taken to hospital ahead of Manchester United’s fixture against Liverpool at Old Trafford on Sunday. Ferguson, United’s most successful manager, was in the tunnel area ahead of the game before being taken to hospital as a precaution. @dansheldon.bsky.social 🔗 nyti.ms/4cWurSc

Manchester United have played on 3 days rest just 5 times this season. That's pretty unbelievable for a "big club". That kind of extra rest advantage can be a big boost.

Look at it this way, so far this season Arsenal have 41 wins and Manchester United have 37 games played.

Looks like that advantage goes away next season for them

Both Manchester clubs, City and United, have done the double over Liverpool in the league for the first time in Premier League history. Another Slot & Liverpool record ✅ #LFC

Incredible stuff from Liverpool. Bruno Fernandes nearly provides a brilliant assist for Sesko’s shot and the whole back four just forget about the Premier League’s most dangerous playmaker.

#LFC come up short despite a stirring comeback in the second half in a predominantly low quality game. Poor first half costs the Reds - but the controversy over United's second will rumble #MUNLIV 👇🔴 www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/sport/footba...

Not sure what was stirring about it. Two school boy errors from Utd players let Liverpool come back. Lots of side to side passing as always and no sharpness up front. The story of our season. Neat and tidy football that doesn’t have an end product.

Hmmm…not sure it was ‘stirring’, more a case of two rubbish teams sharing a half each.

Liverpool’s first half performance vs Manchester United has led me to take refuge in a whiskey sour.

No other game on Sky Sports Football has an ex player from each side as co- commentators. Man U v Liverpool isn't even that important a game in the Premier League. #MUNLIV

Watching Manchester United vs. Liverpool on the Spanish speaking channel and they just called Szoboszlai’s sexto goal and I have to agree, it was muy sexto.
