Manchester United are facing Bournemouth in the Premier League this weekend, with Erik ten Hag looking to get his side back to winning ways after a shorter winless streak.
Liverpool made the trip to Old Trafford last weekend and despite a turnaround from the Reds, Jurgen Klopp’s men scored a late equaliser to ensure the spoils were shared.
United’s winless run have meant they are adrift of the Champions League places and although Tottenham’s defeat to Newcastle does offer Erik ten Hag’s men the chance to close that gap, qualifying for a seat at Europe’s fine dining table is unlikely.

Newcastle did, however, leapfrog United in the table following their 4-0 win over Spurs but United could regain their place in the table with three points at the Vitality Stadium.
