The Athletic's Carl Anka, Laurie Whitwell and Andy Mitten get together to preview this Sunday's huge game at Anfield. Just how do United get the better of Liverpool? Who should start? And is it ok to say they're now in the title race?

They also reflect on Tuesday's victory over Burnley, in particular the performance of Paul Pogba. Is it starting to look like he may have more of a long-term future at the club again? 

Plus, there's transfer news, and Carl shines a light on the continued success of the United women's team.
