Real Madrid coach Jose Mourinho has revealed that he will be at Old Trafford on Sunday afternoon to watch Manchester United take on Liverpool.

Mourinho's side are due to face the Red Devils next month in the Champions League and the Portuguese coach has admitted that he is keen to watch them in action as many times as possible before that tie.

"I have already told Sir Alex Ferguson I am coming," Mourinho told The Sun. "Manchester United against Liverpool - it is a great game and I always want to see my opponents play live, I like to go there and see for myself.

"Hopefully before we play United, I will have time to see them three or four times. I'm sure Sir Alex will do the same. He will come to watch us."

United and Madrid will meet in the Bernabeu on Wednesday, February 13, before the return leg at Old Trafford on Tuesday, March 5.
