Manchester United v Liverpool tickets | Premier League | Old Trafford
Manchester United host Liverpool at Old Trafford in English football's greatest rivalry. This North-West derby pits two of the most decorated clubs in English football history against each other, between two sides who both carry European ambitions.
Old Trafford
Old Trafford, the Theatre of Dreams, has been Manchester United's home since 1910 and boasts a capacity of 74,310 — the largest club ground in the United Kingdom. The stadium has witnessed countless classic encounters between these two rivals, and the atmosphere for this fixture is always among the most intense in world football.
Head-to-Head Record
Manchester United hold a narrow lead in the all-time head-to-head, having edged ahead across more than 240 meetings in all competitions, with the two separated by a slim margin and a host of draws. In the Premier League era, United have held the upper hand over the majority of encounters. However, recent years have seen the balance shift, with Liverpool recording famous victories including a 7-0 win at Anfield in March 2023 and a 5-0 result at Old Trafford in October 2021.
A Memorable Recent Meeting
Manchester United claimed a first win at Anfield in almost a decade with a dramatic 2-1 victory. Bryan Mbeumo shocked Liverpool with a goal inside 62 seconds, capitalising on a mix-up between Virgil van Dijk and Ibrahima Konaté. Cody Gakpo equalised after hitting the woodwork three times, but Harry Maguire rose to head home Bruno Fernandes's superb cross late on to seal victory. It was United's first league win at Anfield since 2016.
Manchester United
Michael Carrick has built impressive momentum at Old Trafford after taking charge in January 2026. Appointed following Ruben Amorim's departure and handed the role permanently after a remarkable turnaround, Carrick assembled an exciting squad featuring the creative talents of Bruno Fernandes - the FWA Footballer of the Year - and Amad Diallo, the firepower of Bryan Mbeumo and Benjamin Sesko, and the defensive solidity of Harry Maguire and Luke Shaw. United finished third in the Premier League and returned to the Champions League, and have shown in victories like Anfield that they can compete with the very best on their day.
Liverpool
Liverpool begin a new era under Andoni Iraola, who took charge in summer 2026 following Arne Slot's departure. The Reds remain one of English football's most formidable forces, having lifted a record-equalling 20th league title under Slot before a fifth-place finish the following season. The squad still boasts significant quality, with British record signing Alexander Isak and creative force Florian Wirtz among the high-profile names, while Cody Gakpo has continued to impress. Under Iraola's high-energy approach, Liverpool aim to return to the summit of English and European football.
