Fixture: Manchester United vs Liverpool
Competition: Premier League
Kick-off: 16:00 (UK time)

Manchester United have named their starting eleven and substitutes to take on Liverpool at Old Trafford in a Premier League game this afternoon.

Jose Mourinho's men are on a superb run of nine consecutive wins across all competitions as they continue to build momentum heading into the business end of the campaign.




Mourinho shut up shop in the earlier league fixture between the two teams at Anfield as the clash ended in a 0-0 draw. He will be looking to take all three points today though and to get the job done picks Marcos Rojo and Phil Jones as his centre-back pair, while Michael Carrick is selected in midfield and wears the captain's armband. Anthony Martial is handed a start, while Henrikh Mkhitaryan and Paul Pogba will look to support Zlatan Ibrahimovic.

From the bench, Mourinho can call for Wayne Rooney if needed, while Marcus Rashford is another attacking option. Juan Mata is also amongst the substitutes.
