Having just returned to the top of the Premier League table, Manchester United turn their attention to the FA Cup when they face Liverpool in the pick of the fourth-round fixtures.
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's men scraped a 2-1 win at Fulham to leapfrog Manchester City and Leicester City in the Premier League table, with two points now separating United from the chasing pack after Edinson Cavani and Paul Pogba got the goals at Craven Cottage.
Sunday's showdown marks the second time in the space of a week that Man United and Liverpool have locked horns, with fans and neutrals alike hoping that this game will prove more entertaining than last weekend's drab goalless draw at Anfield.
With that in mind, Sports Mole rounds up all of Man United's latest injury and suspension news ahead of the contest.
