The Red Devils academy product has tackled Liverpool 16 times at first-team level, boasting a record of three wins, seven draws and six defeats, while he has managed six goals and one assist.
Interestingly, Rashford's first action against Liverpool came in the Europa League, playing in both legs of their last-16 tie in 2015-16, but he was unable to help Man United progress, with the Merseyside outfit winning 3-1 on aggregate.
Rashford has also faced Liverpool once in the FA Cup, scoring and providing an assist in a 3-2 home success for the Red Devils in the fourth round of the competition in 2020-21.
As expected, the bulk of his outings against the Reds have come in the Premier League, winning two, drawing six and losing five of 13 appearances versus them in England's top flight, scoring five goals in the process.

All five of Rashford's Premier League goals against Liverpool have come at Old Trafford, including a brace in a 2-1 success for the Red Devils during the 2017-18 campaign.
The forward also netted against the Merseyside team during the 2019-20 and 2020-21 seasons at Old Trafford, in addition to last season, registering in a 2-1 success for Man United.
Rashford played 85 minutes of his side's extraordinary 7-0 loss at Liverpool in the league last term, but he was a second-half substitute in the goalless draw at Anfield earlier this season.
The attacker's six goals and one assist against Liverpool have come at Old Trafford, which should hand him confidence this weekend, as Man United look to secure what would be a huge result in their campaign.
