Liverpool manager, Jurgen Klopp has warned Manchester United that his team will give them a “big fight” on Sunday.

The Reds beat Wolves 2-0 on Wednesday night, thanks to goals from Virgil van Dijk and Mohamed Salah.

That result ensured they moved up to sixth in the Premier League table.

Klopp’s men are still 10 points behind United ahead of Sunday’s clash at Anfield.

The Red Devils are looking to do the double over Liverpool having won 2-1 at Old Trafford in August.

But Klopp told Premier League Productions: “It’s a big game against a team in form.

“We have to be ready, and we will give them a big fight.”

Speaking more generally about Liverpool’s win over Wolves, Klopp added: ‘We controlled the game without creating massively, but we found our rhythm back.

"The second half, we started a bit hectic, then we scored a wonderful goal which is disallowed.

"Very often when that happens it stays 0-0 or we lose with a late goal, but the boys really wanted it.

"You have to break an opponent down step by step, it’s not often they make mistakes and you get easy goals in the 420 or something games I’ve had here.’

"We knew it would be a difficult game, we controlled the game in a lot of periods.

“In general we did defensively well tonight, Diogo in the 10 was really important, the midfield was together, defensively we had a high line and won decisive challenges. Ali [Alisson] didn’t have spectacular saves to make which was good.

"We had a knock against Real Madrid, we played a really good first half then we started the second really bad. We looked a lot more stable today, we have to carry that on.’
