Liverpool's crosshairs focused on United

Five-time European champion Liverpool will aim to finish off eternal rival Manchester United when England's two most successful sides clash in the Europa League last-16, second leg at Old Trafford on Thursday.

Leading 2-0 from the first leg at Anfield, Liverpool is well placed to reach the quarterfinals of a competition that realistically represents the best chance for either club to qualify for next season's Champions League.

Daniel Sturridge and Roberto Firmino scored as Juergen Klopp's side dominated the first European meeting between the two Premier League giants, and Sturridge says Liverpool's mindset won't change despite its healthy advantage.
