Manchester United host Liverpool on Sunday afternoon hoping to earn three points that will keep their faint hopes of securing a top-four finish alive.
The reigning champions have flattered to deceive for the majority of the campaign, but a 3-0 victory over West Bromwich Albion last weekend helped ease the pressure on manager David Moyes.
Moyes is likely to retai the same starting lineup that began at The Hawthorns.
Liverpool have won four Premier League matches in a row to move to within seven points of Chelsea at the top of the table.
That run of form has helped Brendan Rodgers's team overtake Arsenal and Manchester City in the standings, and three points at Old Trafford will go a long way to securing Champions League football next season.
The inclusion of winger Raheem Sterling is the only likely change to the side that eased past Southampton two weeks ago.
