You can hear the anticipation all the way down Breck Road: it’s Liverpool vs Man United at Anfield, and you just know the city stops for this one. Friends and families split (for 90 minutes, at least), pubs standing room only, and a buzz you won’t get from any telly advert.
What’s the match?
It’s only the biggest domestic fixture in English football, la. Liverpool face off against old rivals Manchester United in a Premier League battle. You don’t need telling it’s never just another game when these two line up. Expect tackles flying in, nerves jangling, and more than one neighbour giving the window a good rattle when the whistle blows.
When is it on?
This clash takes place on Saturday, 22 November 2026 with kick-off set for 16:30. If you need to record Strictly, sort your planner now because there won’t be a soul moving from their seat as soon as this starts.
Where?
The drama unfolds at Anfield, Liverpool, L4 0TH – the Reds’ famous ground. If you’re lucky enough to have a ticket, you’ll be watching from the Kop or one of Anfield’s other stands, soaking up an atmosphere you can’t bottle. Can’t make it? Expect the pub to be full by dinnertime anyway.
