After beating Liverpool at Anfield earlier this season under Ruben Amorim, Michael Carrick’s United have the chance to complete a Premier League double over the Reds for the first time in 10 years.
Carrick would do his chances of becoming United’s head coach on a permanent basis no harm at all by beating Liverpool at Old Trafford, a result that would also wrap up third place.
Liverpool have won three of their last five visits to Old Trafford and Arne Slot could also boost his chances of being in charge next season with three points, which would see the Reds move above United.

Michael Carrick: “It’s certainly one of my favourite games, without doubt. It’s a standout game. I think there’s obviously big games and big rivalries that we have with other teams but certainly this one is right up there. The history, the ups and downs that past has produced in these type of game, and the excitement, entertainment and emotion, which is a huge part of it, makes it a really special game.”
Arne Slot: “Every game you play has influence on your league position. So that’s not only when you play Man United, it’s every week in every game. But we are aware of the fact that it’s a very big game, not only because we play Man United, but definitely also to qualify for the Champions League and to get the highest possible position in the league table, which of course is something we want. We wanted to, of course, win the league. That’s not possible. And then you have to try to end up as high as possible, and that’s what we are trying week in, week out, and that’s what we’re going to try Sunday again as well.”
