The FA Cup quarter-finals are set to thrill fans this weekend, with the standout fixture being Liverpool’s visit to Old Trafford to take on Manchester United on Sunday.
United will be aiming to replicate their 3-2 victory over Liverpool in the same competition during the 2020/21 season.

Despite United’s defensive approach in that match, Klopp’s side was unable to break the deadlock.

Liverpool’s victory over Sparta Prague in the Europa League came with a slight setback as youngster Bobby Clark suffered an ankle injury, forcing him off the pitch.
However, there’s good news on the injury front for Liverpool as Ibrahima Konate is expected to be fit to start, and there’s a chance Ryan Gravenberch could also be available.
On the flip side, Stefan Bajcetic, Thiago Alcantara, Diogo Jota, Ben Doak, Joel Matip, Alisson Becker, Curtis Jones, and Trent Alexander-Arnold remain sidelined.
Despite these absences, the fact that Mohamed Salah played a full 90 minutes without any issues is a positive sign for Liverpool as they head into a crucial stage of the season.
