Manchester United take on Liverpool in the FA Cup quarterfinals at Old Trafford on Sunday.

Erik ten Hag's side are looking to reach the semifinals for the second consecutive season but Jurgen Klopp's men are set to make it tough.

The last time these two sides faced each other at Old Trafford, Man United emerged victorious thanks to a 2-1 win in the Premier League. 

The flip side to that is that Liverpool have advanced from 17 of their last 18 FA Cup quarterfinal ties, failing only once with a 2-1 defeat against Tottenham in 1995.

The Sporting News takes a look at the two squads and provides injury updates ahead of the game.

Rasmus Hojlund also returns to the starting XI after rejoining training this week following a muscular injury that kept him sidelined for the past few weeks.
