Key players
Bruno Fernandes is one short of equalling the Premier League record for assists in a single season (20).
The United captain has also chipped in with eight goals and missed just three of their games in the term.
Benjamin Sesko is their leading scorer in the league and netted his 10th of the campaign against Brentford.
Casemiro, who has announced he will be leaving in the summer, was also on the scoresheet versus the Bees – his ninth of the term, eight of which have been headers.
The top-flight goal tallies of summer arrivals Bryan Mbeumo and Matheus Cunha currently stand at nine and eight respectively.
Previous meeting
United, then managed by Ruben Amorim, won the reverse fixture at Anfield 2-1 back in October.
Cody Gakpo equalised Mbeumo's early opener but the visitors left with the points after an 84th-minute winner from Harry Maguire.
