MAN UTD FORM GUIDE

ANDRE ONANA 4.5

THE Cameroonian may be decent with the ball at his feet, but he’s picked it out of his net 39 times in 24 games during a rocky start at United. Big test for him today.

AARON WAN-BISSAKA 6

ERIK TEN HAG missed his defensive capabilities while the right-back was out for 10 games with a hamstring injury, and they will certainly be in great demand at Anfield.

RAPHAEL VARANE 6.5

STARTED for the first time in seven weeks against Bayern Munich following a fall-out with Ten Hag and will stay in after Harry Maguire was injured. United need a player of his class and experience. VICTOR LINDELOF 6 ASSUMING the Swede is fit to return after a two-match absence, he is likely to get the nod ahead of Jonny Evans. Ten Hag needs Lindelof’s cool head and know-how in the Anfield cauldron.

LUKE SHAW 6.5

EXPECTED to play despite a hamstring problem against Bayern. Shaw was sorely missed during three months out with a thigh muscle injury and has impressed since his return. Could also switch to left centre-back if Ten Hag plays Diogo Dalot at left-back.

MARCUS RASHFORD 4

LAST season’s 30-goal top scorer has been United’s biggest letdown this term. Ten Hag needs a performance from Rashford — and fast — if the out-of-sorts forward is available after illness.

KOBBIE MAINOO 6.5

ONE of the positives to emerge from a wretched season, even though he has missed most of it through injury. Teenager made a fantastic Premier League debut at Goodison Park and wouldn’t be fazed by playing at Anfield.

SCOTT McTOMINAY 7

THE fact that McTominay is the top scorer with six goals is a credit to him for reviving his Old Trafford career and an indictment of United’s toothless attack. He has come to Ten Hag’s rescue on several occasions already and may need to again.

SOFYAN AMRABAT 5

HAPPIER in the centre of midfield than he was as a makeshift left-back, but you wonder if he is technically good enough for the Premier League. Lacks Casemiro’s class.

ALEJANDRO GARNACHO 6.5

LOOKING sharper after a sluggish start to the season. Scored November’s goal of the month with that spectacular overhead kick against Everton and United are likely to need another moment of magic on their return to Merseyside.

RASMUS HOJLUND 5

THERE’S a lot of sympathy for Hojlund as he tries to make his mark in a struggling team with poor service. But he’s still a £72million striker who has yet to score in the Premier League. The Dane needs to turn a corner. Could this be his moment?

TOTAL:

63.5
