Jurgen Klopp claims Liverpool should be awarded a win if their trip to face Manchester United is postponed due to fan protests again.

United's home match against Liverpool in May 2021 had to be rearranged after a group of fans broke into Old Trafford to protest against the Glazer family's ownership of the club.

The match was supposed to be played behind closed doors due to the coronavirus protocols in place at the time, but had to be suspended when around 200 fans broke into the stadium.
