MATCH PREVIEW

Manchester United and Liverpool have had many fierce meetings over the years, but this is the first time that they face one another in a European knockout match.

Liverpool travel to Old Trafford on Thursday with a 2-0 advantage following their win at Anfield in the first leg a week ago.

The winner of Thursday's clash will progress into the
quarter-finals of the Europa League .
Manchester United

Life looked a bit rosier for Louis van Gaal and his team
last month when they claimed four victories in all
competitions on the bounce.


Many believed that fixtures against Shrewsbury Town,
FC Midtjylland and Arsenal would be pivotal in deciding
whether or not Van Gaal kept his job at Old Trafford.
Thankfully for the Dutchman, though, he overcame that
test, but last Thursday the gloom returned when his
team were beaten 2-0 by their long-standing rivals at
Anfield in the first leg of their Europa League last-16 tie.

Former United players Paul Scholes and Rio Ferdinand
were heavily critical of the team, who managed just five shots at goal, only one of which was on target.
United will need to show more fight and desire when
they host Liverpool on their patch, particularly as they
need to score at least three goals to progress into the
quarter-finals.

The Red Devils could be doomed should Liverpool score an away goal, but they have goalkeeper David de Gea at hand to keep them out and given that he made a handful of stops at Anfield, the Spaniard could prove to be pivotal.

The positive news for United is that they head into this
match on the back of a much-improved display against
West Ham United at the weekend.

Anthony Martial scored in the 83rd minute to seal a 1-1
draw against West Ham United in the quarter-finals of
the FA Cup, meaning that a replay will take place at
Upton Park at a later date.

Liverpool

Jurgen Klopp received an array of plaudits after guiding his Liverpool team to victory over Manchester United in the first leg of their Europa League tie last week.

The Merseyside outfit were quicker and sharper than
their counterparts at Anfield and installed a game plan
that United struggled to match.
Liverpool were awarded a slice of luck with a 20-minute penalty, which Daniel Sturridge converted to give the Reds the lead, and after waves of pressure, Roberto Firmino doubled the team's advantage with a goal 73 minutes into the game.

Overall, the Merseyside outfit's spell under Klopp has
been inconsistent since his arrival in October and, in a
way, that was to be expected given that the former
Borussia Dortmund boss needs time to shape his own
team.
In the last few games, though, there have been signs of
Klopp's influence, particularly as he has been able to
welcome back injured players, including Sturridge and
Philippe Coutinho.
Firmino is one member of the team who has begun to
shine following a slow start to his career at Anfield.

The Brazilian is the club's leading scorer this season with nine goals in all competitions, and three of those strikes came in the last three games.

As well as having a 2-0 lead in their favour ahead of
Thursday's game, the Reds also have a decent
European record to fall back on as they are unbeaten
since February 2015 having won four and drawn five.
In addition, the Merseyside outfit have had a whole
week to prepare for this game as they were not in
action at the weekend.

Team News
Bastian Schweinsteiger could be vying for a place in
United's starting XI on Thursday after he made his
return from injury off the substitutes bench against
West Ham.

Jesse Lingard could also return having missed the first leg at Anfield through suspension, but there will be no Wayne Rooney as the captain is not expected to be back in action until after the international break.
As for Liverpool, James Milner missed the first leg due
to illness and he is currently serving a domestic ban,
but he is eligible to feature this week.

Martin Skrtel made his return to the pitch after a
lengthy spell out recently when he featured in an
Under-21 fixture, but it will probably be too early for
Klopp to throw him back into the first team.
Aside from long-term absentees Danny Ings and Joe
Gomez , Liverpool have the majority of their senior
players fit.

Manchester United possible starting lineup:
De Gea; Varela, Smalling, Blind, Rojo; Schweinsteiger,
Schneiderlin; Mata, Lingard, Depay; Martial

Liverpool possible starting lineup:
Mignolet; Clyne, Lovren, Sakho, Moreno; Can,
Henderson; Lallana, Coutinho, Firmino; Sturridge

Head To Head
Prior to last week's result, United had beaten Liverpool
four times on the trot and they boast a positive home
record having won 12 of their last 14 matches against
their enemies in all competitions at Old Trafford.
Juan Mata may be struggling for form of late, but he
has provided three goals and five assists in his last
nine games against Liverpool.

For the Merseyside outfit, Sturridge has impressed
against United having scored five and provided one
assist in his last seven matches against them.

MUFC starting XI vs Liverpool: De Gea, Varela, Smalling, Blind, Rojo, Carrick, Fellaini, Lingard, Mata, Martial, Rashford.
Subs: Romero, Darmian, Valencia, Williams, Schneiderlin, Schweinsteiger,Memphis
Re: Manchester United Vs Liverpool: Europa League (1 - 1) On 17th March 2016 by justjify(m): 8:29pm On Mar 17, 2016
LVG is such a dick-head, how the hell does he think he can win with this line-up
De Gea, Varela, Smalling, Blind, Rojo, "Carrick,
Fellaini
, Lingard, Mata, Martial, Rashford.

Where the hell is Schneiderlin and Schweinsteiger? Why is Herera not in the game at all? Suspension could be the only reason sha!
With this line-up, I give up, there is no way we can score up to 3 unreplied goals. Rashford has gotten enough starts, that dickhead should have given Memphis a start tonight.
