Sky Sports announce pundits for Liverpool FC vs Manchester United

Sky Sports have announced their pundit line up for this weekend's clash between Manchester United and Liverpool.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is the only manager to have taken points from Jurgen Klopp this season following a 1-1 draw at Old Trafford back in December.

Liverpool are aiming to extend their lead at the top of the Premier League table while United are hot in pursuit of Chelsea in the final Champions League place.

The game will be broadcast live on Sky Sports and a host of former players have been confirmed as pundits for the game.

Ex-United captain Roy Keane will join host David Jones in the studio alongside Graeme Souness and Patrice Evra.

Friendly rivals Jamie Carragher and Gary Neville will be alongside veteran Martin Tyler in the commentators' booth.

Neville and Carragher will be pitch-side before and after the game.

United could be without star forward Marcus Rashford after he was substituted against Wolves in midweek.

Solskjaer hinted the England international may miss the trip.

He said during his pre-match press conference: "I can't tell you now.

"As I said with Harry [Maguire] a few weeks ago, of course we're going to give him the absolute amount of time to find out. We'll do some more checks and treatment with him today, yesterday, of course, was just a recovery day and some treatment for him. I've not see him this morning.

"I'm not going to hold my breath. I would probably think he wouldn't be ready but let's see. it's 48 hours [away], more than that, so let's see."
