UEFA could move Manchester United vs. Liverpool kickoff time

UEFA is reportedly considering moving the kickoff time of the Europa League last-16 second leg between Manchester United and Liverpool at Old Trafford.

The arch rivals are due to go head to head on March 17, one week after the pair meet at Anfield in an 8.05pm kickoff.

According to the Manchester Evening News, Trafford Council's safety advisory board has got in touch with UEFA asking that the 6pm kickoff time be put back two hours to 8pm.

The football governing body is considering the request as it prepares to stage the first ever European clash between United and Liverpool.
