A huge day of Premier League action sees eight sides do battle, with the ‘Super Sunday’ billing fully justified. The Dugout Discussion opens in time for the first of two televised games – the small matter of Liverpool versus Manchester United.

Despite a lot of the pre-game media attention understandably focusing on events off the field, three points for either side here will be massive. Here’s how the sides line-up…

Liverpool XI: Reina, Kelly, Skrtel, Agger, Johnson, Gerrard, Allen, Shelvey, Borini, Suarez, Sterling.

Man United XI: Lindegaard, Da Silva, Ferdinand, Evans, Evra, Carrick, Giggs, Valencia, Kagawa, Nani, van Persie.

Straight after the game at Anfield, we head over to the Etihad Stadium to see the other Manchester club host Arsenal.

In and amongst those two fixtures, Newcastle United welcome the visit of Norwich City, and Queens Park Rangers take the small journey to their city rivals Tottenham Hotspur.

You can follow all the action from all today’s games in our Dugout Discussion chatroom, which can be accessed right here.

    what on earth was Rodgers thinking letting Carroll go, bringing Borini in and not signing any other strikers. Head mental! Borini will be lucky to score 5 goals this season. Piss poor.

      Poor match so far.

      United hardly touched the ball and Nani gives it away when they get it.

      Now Shelvey red.

    Can't argue too much with that red. Bad tackle. Wouldn't be surprised if United get a cheap red later though to even it up.

    Only Liverpool could get a player sent off on a day when Suarez and Evra shake hands, Man Utd supporters applaud the Liverpool team anthem and Sir Alex sends an open letter to every MUFC fan telling them to be on their best behaviour.

    You seriously could not make it up.

    And the challenge was a potential leg breaking season ender. Straight red was the only option for the ref.
