There's claims Liverpool fans are planning a hot reception for Manchester United's team bus at Anfield on Sunday.

The Daily Mail says a fans group - Official Liverpool fans - has called upon home supporters to 'bring pints, pyros and flags' for when Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's squad arrive at Anfield.

It is anticipated that there could be a repeat of the scenes that occurred when Liverpool hosted Manchester City in the Champions League in 2018.

On that occasion some of the windows on the coach were smashed, with the roof being burned after a flare was thrown.

Liverpool fans have also staged hostile welcomes for away team buses on several other occasions - including for games against Borussia Dortmund and Roma in 2016 and 2018 respectively.

The organisers were eager to point out that, although they intend for the 'greeting' to be hostile, they don't want it to be violent.

They called for fans to arrive around two hours before the game and line the streets starting from The King Harry Pub all the way down Anfield Road to the ground.
