Manchester United and Liverpool will renew their bitter rivalry in a Premier League Super Sunday clash at Old Trafford on Sunday.

With no prospect of silverware this season, Liverpool are facing a dog fight to qualify for the Champions League - despite cantering to the title last year.

Jurgen Klopp's men sit four points off fourth-placed Chelsea with five games to go, and cannot afford any more slip-ups between now and the end of the season.

The problem for the reigning champions is that they face an in-form United side who have one foot in the Europa League final after routing AS Roma 6-2 on Thursday night.

The Red Devils' title hopes are all but over, sitting in second, 10 points behind the neighbours in Manchester City.

However, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer would love to deal a hammer blow to Liverpool's Champions League hopes with a result on Sunday.

Here, SPORTbible takes a look at everything you need to know ahead of the big game.
