Liverpool face one of their biggest games of the season when they welcome Manchester United to Anfield on Sunday (16.30 GMT).
The Reds and their bitter rivals are having contrasting campaigns so far. Jurgen Klopp's side sit at the top of the Premier League table, while they're into the next stage of the Europa League and have a Carabao Cup quarter-final approaching.
United, on the other hand, sit 10 points behind Liverpool in sixth. They've also meekly exited the Champions League after taking just four points from six games and finishing bottom of their group, having lost 1-0 to Bayern Munich earlier this week. As a result, pressure has piled on head coach Erik ten Hag.
Still, Jurgen Klopp will not be taking anything for granted. He will want an improved performance for Liverpool after they were forced to battle from behind to deliver a 2-1 win at Crystal Palace. The Reds were also not at their best in a 2-0 triumph over Sheffield United. And while Liverpool earned a famous 7-0 victory over United in the fixture last season, supporters are all too aware that form can go completely out of the window.
Both outfits have injury issues heading into the game. As things stand, here's a look at the current situation for both Liverpool and United.
1. Jurrien Timber - out
The summer signing from Ajax suffered a serious knee injury on his Premier League debut in August and has been sidelined since.
2. Fabio Vieira - out
A groin injury has meant the midfielder has been absent since November.
3. Thomas Partey - out
The midfielder was back in Arsenal training but Arteta admitted earlier this week that Partey has had a setback.
4. Takehiro Tomiyasu - out
The defender has been Asian Cup duty with Japan, who went out yesterday.
