Man United are on the brink of sealing a return to the Champions League with just four Premier League games remaining.
The Old Trafford side are currently 11 points clear of Brighton in sixth after an excellent second half of the campaign under Michael Carrick.
Liverpool might not end the season with a trophy, but the Anfield side are also closing in on a top-five finish, which will see them secure a spot in Europe's premier club competition next season.

Team news
Carrick will be without the services of central defenders Lisandro Martinez and Matthijs de Ligt for the game on Sunday.
On a more positive note, Matheus Cunha could feature after missing the Brentford clash due to injury and Luke Shaw could also make an appearance, despite coming off with a minor knock against the Bees.
Mohamed Salah is the main absentee for Liverpool, as a hamstring issue denies him a final appearance against United.
Hugo Ekitike, Jayden Danns, Giovanni Leoni, Wataru Endo, Conor Bradley and Giorgi Mamardashvili are also absent, while goalkeeper Alisson Becker is a major doubt for the clash at Old Trafford.
The stats
Despite the fact that United have struggled in recent seasons, the Red Devils have enjoyed a decent record against their Merseyside rivals.
Indeed, United have won two of the previous five matches, with Liverpool claiming just one victory in that period.
Both teams have found the back of the net in four of those previous five matches, with a total of 21 goals being scored.
Since Carrick walked into Old Trafford, United have lost just two of their 13 matches.
Across that same period, Arne Slot's side have suffered eight defeats in all competitions, being knocked out of the FA Cup and Champions League in the process.
United will be looking to finish above Liverpool in the Premier League for the second time in four seasons.
Benjamin Sesko is United's top scorer with 11 goals this term, while Ekitike leads the way for the Anfield side, scoring 17 goals during his debut season in England.

Prediction
Truth be told, this match could go either way. United have improved massively under Carrick, yet losses to Leeds and Newcastle prove the Red Devils are nowhere near the finished article quite yet.
Liverpool have steadied the ship in the Premier League as they chase a Champions League spot.
Slot's men have won their three previous matches in the competition and are seeking only their second victory at Old Trafford since the start of the decade.
Carrick is determined to land the job on a permanent basis, however, and this will give his side an added impetus to win on Sunday.
Score Prediction: Man Utd 2-1 Liverpool
