Jose Mourinho’s side are unbeaten since October and are currently on a run of nine consecutive wins – six of which have come in the Premier League – and a tenth would put United within two points of their Merseyside rivals.
But the first game of the day takes place on Merseyside, as Manchester City travel to Goodison Park to take on seventh-placed Everton.
The Toffees will see new £22m signing from United Morgan Schneiderlin make his debut as City look to return to the top four after a mixed run of results.

There has been nothing to separate the red of Manchester and Merseyside this season.
So Manchester United and Liverpool finish all square for the second time this season following a game low on quality but high on octane and drama.
Zlatan Ibrahimovic's late equaliser was not enough to steal Sunday away from Merseyside after Everton thumped Manchester City for four earlier in the afternoon. Teenage goalscorers Tom Davies and Ademola Lookman stole the headlines as Pep Guardiola suffered the heaviest defeat of his managerial career.
Just another weekend in the Premier League, hey?
We'll be back next Saturday to do it all again when James Marriner will be here to talk you through seven more games that includes Tottenham's teatime trip to the Etihad. Until then, thanks for being with us and goodnight.
