Manchester United v Liverpool is not only one of the biggest games of the Premier League season, it is also seen as one of the biggest matches in world football – despite neither side having won the English top flight since the 2012/13 season.
The last title was won by Sir Alex Ferguson’s Manchester United four years ago, with the Red Devils now on their third manager since the legendary Scot retired. Jose Mourinho took over from the much maligned Louis van Gaal last summer and, after a shaky start, has led United to within touching distance of the top four after an impressive nine match winning run in all competitions.
