Heavy snowfall hits the North of England and threatens the success of today’s clash, namely Liverpool-Manchester United. But Liverpool reassured via press release.
Are we heading towards a postponement of today’s clash in the Premier League between Liverpool, the leader, and Manchester United? Heavy snowfall in the north of England is in any case endangering this classic of English football, just one month after the Liverpool derby was already postponed due to bad weather.
The match is scheduled to kick off at 5:30 p.m., and the situation will be monitored hour after hour by the Premier League authorities in order to decide whether or not to hold this regional derby. Liverpool communicated and reassured: a priori, everything should be back to normal by then.
“A safety meeting took place this morning to assess the weather and travel conditions for today’s match against Manchester United at Anfield,” Liverpool said.
“At this stage the match is expected to proceed as normal and every effort is being made to ensure the match can go ahead.”
For Liverpool, this match is all the more important as the Reds saw Arsenal lose points at Brighton & Hove Albion. A victory and Arne Slot’s men would be 8 points ahead, with still a derby against Everton to make up for.
