Historical rivals, Liverpool and Manchester United meet this Sunday for the England derby (kick-off at 5:30 p.m.). Almost everything opposes the reigning champion to his best enemy for several years. Best teamEnglandArne Slot's team is already at the top of the table, while United have been languishing in the depths of the Premier League rankings for years.
But a derby remains a derby. In this type of meeting, the ranking photograph no longer counts. Capable of making shots against the big names, Manchester United intends to take advantage of a small drop in form from the Reds. Less sovereign, Mohamed Salah's teammates even lost their leadership position before the international break. This shock at Anfield should hold its share of surprises. Time for the show.

Liverpool : Mamardashvili – Bradley, Van Dijk, Konate, Kerkez – Gravenberch, Szoboszlai – Wirtz, Salah, Gakpo – Ekitike.
