Ten Hag names team to tackle Liverpool

Sunday 07 April 2024 14:30

Erik ten Hag has named his Manchester United line-up for the home game against Liverpool in the Premier League.

The manager has urged his players to respond to the concession of costly late goals in our previous matches against Brentford and Chelsea, as we return to home turf in front of the Old Trafford crowd.

The scene of our epic 4-3 Emirates FA Cup quarter-final win over Jurgen Klopp's men, it presents a chance to upset the title push for Jurgen Klopp's men, with the German facing the Reds for the last time before leaving Anfield at the end of the season.

Injuries at the back for Raphael Varane and Jonny Evans, both substituted at Stamford Bridge, lead to Willy Kambwala's second league start, alongside Harry Maguire.

The other alteration to the XI is the return of Marcus Rashford to the frontline, in place of Antony, with Alejandro Garnacho expected to switch to the right.

The England international has an excellent record against Liverpool and will look to get beyond their defence.

Harry Amass is on our senior bench for the first time, with fellow youngsters Habeeb Ogunneye and Omari Forson alongside him.
