JAKARTA - Ole Gunnar Solskjaer admits Manchester United has fallen behind rivals Liverpool in recent years. Ole also admits it will not be easy to beat Jurgen Klopp's men.

Manchester United coach Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is aware of the "tremendous" challenge his team will face when they host Liverpool in the Premier League on Sunday, October 24.

"It will take everything to get a result against one of the best teams in Europe and the world", the Norwegian coach told the club's official website ahead of the match.

“And Liverpool is one of them. They are one of the teams we are trying to go after because what they have done in the last four years is something we want to do and go through.

"We have been chasing them for the last four years and as a result, we are behind them", he added. "We did finish above them last season but they had a very bad injury storm and now they are back to their best.

"It's a huge rivalry considering the history of the two clubs, the number of titles and trophies these clubs have won, and the history between us, the two cities and their football clubs", said Solskjaer.

United currently sits sixth in the Premier League standings after two defeats, one draw from their last three matches.

Meanwhile, Liverpool is four points clear and could again overtake Manchester City to second place if they win against their city rivals.
