Injuries permitting, which is always the concern when players are released for international duty, Amorim knows the personnel he will deploy at Anfield as he seeks back-to-back league wins for the first time since taking charge nearly a year ago.

United's 2-0 win over Sunderland has given Amorim the template to go to the home of the reigning champions and try to secure a first victory at Anfield since a Wayne Rooney strike secured a 1-0 win there back in 2016.

In goal, there is no reason to change Senne Lammens after the 23-year-old's assured debut against Sunderland, which had United fans chanting "Are you Schmeichel in disguise?" given how well he commanded his area and repelled everything thrown at him.
