With an almost-full schedule of Premier League football coming this weekend, only the Aston Villa vs. Everton match has been postponed, with COVID-19 cases at Villa Park deemed too excessive to permit the players to train before Saturday.

While there are some exciting clashes across the weekend, none compare to the showdown at Anfield. Liverpool, the reigning champions, trail their bitter rivals Manchester United at the top of the table going into the game. Win, and the Merseysiders will return to the summit. Lose and there will be six points between the two teams in favour of the fallen giants from Manchester.

So, what will happen and what’s the history in this exact fixture? Let’s take a look.
