Barclays Premier League - Its that time of year again, one of the biggest and most contested games in club football is upon us. Manchester United will play host to fierce Liverpool.
Both teams will be looking for a win after looking a little disappointing in the league so far. Manchester United will be looking to shake away the blues of last week when they conceded 2 stoppage time goals to lose what looked a guaranteed 3 points against Everton.
Although Liverpool looked a little better midweek, it wasn’t their strongest team and some people suggest their best players aren’t really interested at the moment. However this lot always seem to get up for it against Man United.
Team News
Manchester United
Antonio Valencia begins a long injury absence after picking up a serious ankle injury in midweek. Many of United's other key players will be feeling fresh after Sir Alex Ferguson made 10 changes for the Champions League draw against Rangers.
Anderson is back in first-team contention after a long absence with a knee injury, although is unlikely to start the match.
Rio Ferdinand is expected to make his first Premier League start of the new season alongside Nemanja Vidic - a player who has struggled against Liverpool in the past - in the centre of United's defence.
Liverpool
Steven Gerrard and Fernando Torres will return for Liverpool after being rested, along with Jamie Carragher and Martin Skrtel, for Thursday's Europa League win against Steaua Bucharest.
England midfielder Joe Cole, who set Liverpool on their way to victory against Steaua with a goal after 30 seconds, will also make his return to Premier League action after completing the three-match suspension he icurred for a red card against Arsenal on the opening day.
Fabio Aurelio (Achilles) and Dirk Kuyt (shoulder) are both still sidelined.
Possible Formation
Manchester United :
Van der Sar; O'Shea, Ferdinand, Vidic, Evra; Nani, Fletcher, Scholes, Park; Rooney, Berbatov.
Liverpool :
Reina; Johnson, Carragher, Skrtel, Konchesky; Poulsen, Meireles; Jovanovic, Gerrard, Cole; Torres.
