United can inadvertently gift Liverpool the title with victory over their neighbours tonight, but they are also desperate for a win themselves, after six defeats in their last eight games have left them scrambling for the top four.Solskjaer is not risking any hiccups, opting for the Hilton Hotel on Deansgate rather than the traditionally-used Lowry Hotel, in order to avoid roadworks.
