Manchester United supporters have backed Luke Shaw to make an instant return to action for this afternoon's meeting with Liverpool.

United travel to Anfield knowing a win will further cement their place in the top four, following defeats for both Newcastle and Tottenham on Saturday, but face a Liverpool side who have won three of their last four league games and four of their last five at Anfield - a ground the Reds haven't won at since 2016.

But an outstanding run of form has seen them win nine and draw two of their last 11 games, most recently coming from a goal down to beat West Ham United 3-1 and book their place in the FA Cup quarter-finals - where they will host Fulham at Old Trafford.

The 27-year-old's experience will be vital against Mohamed Salah and a fervent Anfield crowd, as will the leadership of both Lisandro Martinez and Raphael Varane in the middle.
