Manchester United's trip to Anfield on Sunday shows the difference a year can make with the Red Devils favourites going into one of the Premier League's biggest clashes of the year against Liverpool.
United have the chance to record a double over Liverpool for the first time since the 2015-16 season, while Jurgen Klopp's Reds will be hunting for a valuable three points that would close the gap to the Champions League places.
Both will have just three full days of recovery after Erik ten Hag's side advanced to the FA Cup sixth round with a 3-1 win over West Ham on Wednesday and Liverpool continued their resurgence with an English top-flight victory over Wolverhampton Wanderers.
