| Manchester United take on Liverpool at Old Trafford at 12:45pm on Saturday in the biggest Premier League game of the weekend. All eyes will be on a returning Luis Suarez, who will look to focus on football again after being found guilty of racist abuse by the FA. Patrice Evra, the man who accused Suarez, looks set to start for United but he will also want to forget about the whole affair, with the distraction seemingly affecting his performances in the meantime. |

Both sides drew in the last round of fixtures, but United's fightback from 3-0 down against Chelsea tells us a little more about them than Liverpool's dull stalemate with Tottenham. United were defensively fragile, but showed their usual fighting spirit to get themselves back into the game. Liverpool's performance was in keeping with the rest of their season - dominating much of the game but with no cutting edge, ending in a draw at Anfield.
United's injury worries persist, but with Nani, Jones, Cleverley and Owen on the verge of returns just as the crucial run in to the season begins, there'll be optimism at Old Trafford and trepidation at Manchester City. Enrique could be fit again for Liverpool, bit with Johnson and Kelly impressing against Spurs a return for the Spanish right back isn't assured. The key selection dilemma for Kenny Dalglish is likely to be in attack, where combining Suarez, Carroll, Kuyt and Bellamy effectively is a challenge. Bellamy is the form player of the four, but there will be concerns about his ability to stay fit while playing in so many big games in succession.
