Kick-Off: Sunday 24 October, 14.00 GMT, Anfield, Liverpool> Bitter rivals Manchester United travel to Anfield for what is expected to be one of the biggest encounters in the English Premier League this season. For one thing, history has proven that any match between Manchester United and Liverpool is closely watched by soccer fans all over the world. For another, with Liverpool in a slump after losing four straight matches so far, many are curious if the Merseysiders can bounce back and beat the Red Devils.

Another anticipated issue in this match is Michael Owen. He scored 158 goals for Liverpool before joining Real Madrid for an ill-fated spell in Spain. Injuries then diminished his impact at Newcastle, who were relegated from the Premier League last season and it was a surprise to many when Sir Alex Ferguson brought him to Old Trafford before the start of this campaign. With Wayne Rooney still not expected to be fit for this match, Michael Owen will definitely be the man United will be counting on.

A hostile reception from Liverpool fans is expected. And that hostility will even be stringer if Owen scores for Manchester United to beat Liverpool like what he did against Manchester City last month.

Possible starters: Liverpool: Reina, Johnson, Skrtel, Carragher, Aurelio, Kuyt, Lucas, Mascherano, Riera, Benayoun, Torres

Manchester United: Van der Sar, O’Shea, Vidic, Ferdinand, Evra, Valencia, Carrick, Anderson, Giggs, Berbatov, Owen
