Manchester United and Liverpool Lineups: Visitors Without Isak

Manchester United hosts Liverpool in a blockbuster Premier League derby. Following a brilliant run under Michael Carrick, the Red Devils currently sit third in the table, holding a three-point advantage over their rivals. Both teams are on the cusp of securing qualification for the Champions League.

Matheus Cunha has recovered and starts for Manchester United. He replaces Amad Diallo on the left wing, marking the only change from the Brentford match. Luke Shaw also features in the starting XI, despite picking up an injury in the last game. Lisandro Martinez is suspended.

Alexander Isak is not in the Liverpool squad, compounding their attacking woes. He misses the match due to injury. The Merseyside club is also without Mohamed Salah and Hugo Ekitike, who are both sidelined with injuries. Jeremie Frimpong and Ryan Gravenberch start. Freddie Woodman is in goal, as Alisson and Mamardashvili are both injured.
