Danger man

Ahead of Sunday's massive clash at Anfield, Southampton and Spurs kept their Champions League ambitions on the radar with victories on Saturday.

Harry Kane continued his prolific striking form with a hat-trick as Tottenham won a thrilling game against relegation-threatened Leicester 4-3 at the Lane.

Meanwhile, another candidate for the Championship - Burnley - suffered defeat on the south coast, as Southampton continue to threaten a resurgence, making it seven points from three with a 2-0 win.

Both teams will be hoping for a draw or Liverpool victory on Sunday, as the Premier League season approaches the business end of proceedings.

Sixth-placed Saints and seventh-placed Spurs sit level pegging on 53 points, a single point behind the Scousers and three behind MUFC. Louis van Gaal's men will open up a five point cushion in the top four with an away win in Sunday's pivotal clash.

Come on United.
