Liverpool vs Man Utd
Premier League 2018/19
Venue: Anfield
Date: Sunday, 16 December, 2018
Kick-off time: 4pm GMT

Liverpool and Manchester United face off at Anfield on Sunday as Jose Mourinho attempts to put a dent in Jurgen Klopp's Premier League title ambitions.

The hosts are riding high in top spot after Manchester City slipped up last weekend, with Liverpool already 16 points ahead of United in the table after just 16 games.

The Red Devils limp to Merseyside eight points off the top four and off the back of a woeful Champions League defeat at Valencia, but Mourinho would love nothing more than to end Liverpool's unbeaten League run in front of the Kop.
