Manchester United veteran Paul Scholes believes this weekend’s opponents Liverpool are their main adversaries.
While the 38-year-old midfielder acknowledges that Manchester City are now serious challengers, he feels Anfield outfit are still United’s main opponents from a historical perspective given the two clubs’ honours list.
"Whether Manchester City have overtaken Liverpool now [as United's biggest rivals], I don't know; it'll probably take years for City to create what Liverpool have done," Scholes told Inside United.
"Liverpool historically are our biggest rivals, they're always the biggest games and the best atmospheres. But I'm sure City will run them close.
"I think it was the top one [fixture] for quite some while. Liverpool probably haven't done as well as they'd have liked over the last few years and they'd probably admit that. But it's definitely still right up there – it'll always be right up there."
