Liverpool vs Manchester United Premier League match to proceed despite snowfall

Liverpool's Premier League match against Manchester United at Anfield will proceed as scheduled on Sunday. This is despite significant snowfall in north-west England causing travel disruptions.

Liverpool, managed by Arne Slot, has the opportunity to extend their lead at the top of the table to eight points. This is if they secure a victory against a struggling Manchester United side. United has lost its last four matches across all competitions.

The match, scheduled for a 16:30 GMT kick-off, has been confirmed after two safety meetings. These meetings involved both clubs and local authorities.



“Today’s fixture against Manchester United will go ahead as planned.”

“Two safety meetings were held earlier to assess the weather and travel conditions.”

“We thank everyone involved in helping us to get this game on today. If you’re travelling to Anfield then please take extra care. We look forward to seeing you there.”

Heavy snowfall overnight caused the closure of both Liverpool and Manchester airports. This presents challenges for fans traveling to the game.

Train services to and from Liverpool's main Lime Street station have also been affected. Cancellations are in place until midday, creating further travel complications for supporters. Fans are urged to exercise caution when traveling to Anfield.
