Man Utd squad & team news
Anthony Martial is back in training for the Red Devils, meaning that Ten Hag has another attacking option to consider as he waits on a first effort from his side this season that is not an own goal.
Defensive leaks have once again proved difficult to plug, and Sweden international centre-half Victor Lindelof remains unavailable through injury.
Facundo Pellistri is nursing an ankle complaint, while left-back Brandon Williams is not expected to form any part of United’s matchday plans and Brazilian midfielder Casemiro is still in the process of finalising his move from Real Madrid.
Liverpool squad & team news
Darwin Nunez’s reckless red card against Crystal Palace means that he is starting a three-match ban, with Roberto Firmino making a welcome return to training in time to provide attacking cover.
Midfielders Thiago Alcantara and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain are set to remain out of action for some time, while centre-halves Ibrahima Konate and Joel Matip are also out of contention for the Reds.
Portuguese forward Diogo Jota and highly-rated playmaker Curtis Jones are not expected to return from thigh and calf complaints until September, but Irish goalkeeper Caoimhin Kelleher could make the bench.
With two defeats from two Premier League games as Manchester United manager under his belt, Erik ten Hag could have asked for a kinder fixture than the visit of arch-rivals Liverpool.
However, Jurgen Klopp's side are faltering themselves in the early stages of this season, having posted consecutive draws against Fulham and Crystal Palace.
Of course, regardless of the form these two sides are in, the prospect of English football's two biggest clubs facing is always enough to excite.
Here's how to follow the action from Old Trafford when these iconic sides renew their hostilities.

Manchester United vs. Liverpool predicted lineups
Manchester United will hope that Anthony Martial and Victor Lindelof can return after missing recent games through injury.
Ten Hag has few other fitness concerns, though he will surely swap in Raphael Varane for Lisandro Martinez at the back after making that change at half-time of last week's defeat to Brentford.
Manchester United predicted starting XI (4-2-3-1): De Gea (GK) — Dalot, Varane, Maguire, Shaw — Fred, Eriksen — Sancho, Fernandes, Rashford — Ronaldo
As for Liverpool, they are likely to welcome Roberto Firmino back from injury to take the place of the suspended Darwin Nunez, while Joe Gomez should be fit to start in place of Nat Phillips.
However, an already lengthy injury list now features Joel Matip alongside the likes of Thiago Alcantara, Diogo Jota and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, none of whom will be available to feature.
Liverpool predicted starting XI (4-3-3): Alisson (GK) — Alexander-Arnold, Gomez, Van Dijk, Robertson — Elliott, Fabinho, Henderson — Salah, Firmino, Diaz

Manchester United vs. Liverpool betting odds
Liverpool have won on their last two trips to Old Trafford and have avoided defeat there in the Premier League since 2018, so it is little surprise to see them start as strong favourites.
However, a United hurting from successive defeats and roared on by a boisterous Old Trafford crowd could prove a tricky prospect for Klopp's out-of-sorts side.
