Jurgen Klopp says two Man Utd players can ‘make a difference’ (Picture: Getty)
Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp has warned his team about two Manchester United players ahead of the rivals meeting in the FA Cup quarter-finals.
Klopp’s side travel to Old Trafford on Sunday and the Red Devils have benefited from an injury boost with in-form striker Rasmus Hojlund set to make his return.
Hojlund has not featured in United’s last three top-flight games due to a muscle problem but Klopp is concerned that he could be a threat for their cup clash.
The Denmark international has conjured up seven goals and two assists across his last six Premier League appearances and will look to continue his impressive form.
Klopp also feels that United star Aaron Wan-Bissaka could ‘make a difference’ if he is fit for the quarter-final.
‘We will try to prepare,’ Klopp said about Sunday’s clash against United. ‘Again we have a situation where we have played Thursday [in the Europa League] and we handled it.
‘United have had a full week to prepare. Erik ten Hag knows how to play so he will line up some challenges but we have to be ready anyway.

‘As much as it’s possible, I enjoy [these games]. I don’t know much about their season but I saw some good games, a lot of quality and injury problems.
‘Hojlund is available again. Wan-Bissaka is close. That obviously makes a difference, we will see on Sunday.
‘It was always a tough place to go, it means everything to both fan groups, we know that. We try to show that on the pitch with the work rate but we never know. No guarantees, just opportunities, we will give it a try.’
