Liverpool midfielder Fabinho: Man Utd our biggest rivals

Liverpool midfielder Fabinho is in no doubt how important tomorrow's clash with Manchester United is.

Fabinho - who had his first taste of an English derby in the recent 1-0 victory over Everton - insists they will not be taking United lightly.

“We're going to approach this game like all the other games and I hope it's a night to remember, like the Everton game," he said.

Fabinho also said, “I'm not really an expert on the history of this rivalry, but I believe it is the biggest rivalry in English football.

“They're the two most successful teams in England, so history shows that there's a huge rivalry.

“I think the geographical closeness, with Manchester being just down the road, adds even more to it."
