Manchester United star Marcus Rashford has been suffering from vomiting and diarrhoea-inducing bug norovirus before the clash with Liverpool.
The crisis-ridden Manchester United side will be traveling to Anfield this Sunday for the season’s first clash between the two rivals. The Merseysiders are the favorites for the clash.
Having faced their only loss in September in the controversial match against Tottenham Hotspurs, the Reds are topping the PL points table with 37 points after 16 games played.

The 26-year-old has only scored 2 goals in the PL this season. Compared to last season, where he had achieved 4 by this stage, his performance this season is terrible.
