What a treat we are in store for at Anfield tonight as we get our first taste of Liverpool versus Manchester United in the 2016/17 campaign.
Jurgen Klopp’s side have started the season like a train bar a blip at Burnley and playing some scintillating football while scoring 18 goals in the process, they face Manchester United at the best time.
United need to bounce back following a disappointing 1-1 draw against Stoke City prior to the international break and with Jose Mourinho now in charge, the touchline should be entertaining enough tonight, let alone the game!
Liverpool haven’t had it all their own way recently however with Georginio Wijnaldum going down injured during the international break, not to mention Adam Lallana having carried a knock since the Reds’ 1-2 win at Swansea City.
With Klopp being forced into changes to his settled starting eleven this evening, the true depth of the Reds’ squad will be put to the test.
Reds supporters won’t want to recall the fact Louis van Gaal’s Manchester United completed a Premier League double over the Merseysiders last season although Liverpool earned revenge by dumping the Red Devils out of the Europa League.
But with the limelight solely focused upon tonight’s game, This Is Futbol have devised what we believe will be Jurgen Klopp’s chosen starting eleven.
