Fixture: Manchester United vs Liverpool
Competition: Europa League Round of 16 Second Leg
Kick-off: 20:05 (UK time)

Liverpool have announced their starting line-up and substitutes to lock horns with fierce rivals Manchester United at Old Trafford in a Europa League game tonight.

Jurgen Klopp's men head into the second leg of their Round of 16 tie in command thanks to a 2-0 win at Anfield over the Red Devils last week. The German boss, who is well aware winning the Europa League would mean Champions League football next season, trusts in Daniel Sturridge up front, with Roberto Firmino, Adam Lallana and Philippe Coutinho providing support.




Emre Can, James Milner and Jordan Henderson will want to dominate in midfield, while Dejan Lovren and Mamadou Sakho form the central defensive pairing. On the bench, Klopp can call for Christian Benteke and Divock Origi for further striking options.

Liverpool, due to their exit from the FA Cup at the hands of West Ham, had last weekend off, providing them with precious more preparation time for this evening's vital game.
