Jose Mourinho will hope to keep the Manchester United squad inform as they face Liverpool in their next Premier League matchup

With the Premier League table heating up, red-hot Manchester United are set to face Liverpool in an old-time rivalry. The two teams have had very strong seasons so far, with Liverpool sitting five points above United on 44 points.

The inform Swedish striker will be an incredibly hard man to stop for Klopp and his men, as his sheer size and strength alone are enough to rattle a defense. It will be a big ask for Liverpool to keep him off the score sheet.
