Reds’ manager Kenny Dalglish has opted to throw Luis Suarez back into the starting XI against their bitter rivals as we are moments away from kick off.
The Liverpool squad for the match against Manchester United has been confirmed by the club. The two sides will kick off proceedings at 12:45pm GMT at Old Trafford, but the team news has already started pouring in.
It seems that Liverpool manager, Kenny Dalglish, has plenty of faith in his Uruguayan striker, Luis Suarez, as he has chosen to start with him upfront instead of Andy Carroll.
The team line-up was confirmed via the club’s website and Twitter account as well and sees a number of changes to the squad that drew level with Tottenham last weekend.
