The Premier League clash between Liverpool and Manchester United at Anfield this Sunday faces uncertainty due to severe winter weather.

Heavy snowfall in the Liverpool area over the past 24 hours has disrupted transport and raised safety concerns.

Although snow is expected to clear before the scheduled 5:30 PM kick-off, conditions around the stadium could remain hazardous, according to reports.

Authorities are said to be prioritizing the safety of fans, players, and staff, with a decision on whether the match will proceed as expected by noon on Sunday.

Transport issues compound the situation. Train services into Liverpool Lime Street are suspended, and John Lennon Airport’s runway has been closed, making travel to and from the city challenging.

Despite this, Anfield’s pitch is reported to be in good condition and ready for play.

If postponed, rescheduling the match could be problematic, with Liverpool’s packed calendar, already affected by the postponement of the Merseyside Derby against Everton due to Storm Darragh.
