There’s something about Liverpool v Manchester United. Even when one team isn’t challenging at the top, as Liverpool weren’t 20 years ago and United aren’t now, it’s one of the world’s biggest games thanks to the remarkable global reach of these two storied clubs. They meet at Anfield on Sunday as Arne Slot’s side look to get their title defence back on track after a couple of defeats, while Ruben Amorim continues with the long-term task of making the Red Devils challengers again.

Elsewhere this week (Wednesday 15 to Wednesday 22 October) there’s Formula One action from the United States Grand Prix in Austin, Texas, plus a full slate of PREM Rugby matches and action from the men’s and women’s UEFA Champions League competitions. The World Track Cycling Championships start in Santiago, Chile, with Great Britain aiming to top the medal table, as well as the Women’s Cricket World Cup, Major League Baseball play-offs, MotoGP, tennis, golf, snooker and much more. Read on to see the full week’s guide plus our picks every day.
