PA's chief football writer Simon Peach confirmed the bus had been damaged.
"Bottle thrown at the United bus - smashed part of a window on the upper deck," he posted on X.
It is not be the first time that an opposition team bus has been attacked outside ahead of a match against Liverpool.
In 2018, Manchester City's team bus was damaged by projectiles ahead of a Champions League quarter-final tie.

A similar incident occurred ahead of another match against City in 2022, while Greater Manchester Police launched an investigation in April after Liverpool's own team coach was damaged following their 4-1 defeat at the Etihad.
In November, City and Liverpool wrote to their supporters to urge them to behave themselves during their Premier League match.
Liverpool referenced missile throwing in their letter, while City highlighted tragedy chanting.
Both sets of fans were warned that action would be taken against those found to have misbehaved.
