Jordan Henderson insists there is no reason why Liverpool can't continue their excellent away record and get a favourable result at Old Trafford on Saturday.

Having knocked Manchester United out of the FA Cup recently, Kenny Dalglish's side will go into the clash with Alex Ferguson's side in high spirits.

The No.14 points to successes on away soil against the likes of Arsenal, Chelsea, Everton and Manchester City in the first leg of the Carling Cup semi-final, as proof of Liverpool's confidence on the road.

"It's another massive game for us. Hopefully we can go there and get another victory," said Henderson.

"The spirits are still really high.

"We played some good stuff against Tottenham and created some good chances but just didn't manage to put any of them away.

"We could take a lot of positives from the game and now we're looking forward to facing United.

"We've won some important games away this season and that gives us a lot of belief.

 "I don't know why we seem to have done better away from home this season.

"Maybe counter attacking suits our style but we don't know how Saturday's game is going to turn out.

"We've been playing well over the past few weeks, putting in some good performances and we need to continue that."

United go into the game on the back of their Stamford Bridge comeback, which saw them come from 3-0 down to force a 3-3 draw at Chelsea.

Henderson added: "It was unbelievable how they came back to get a draw and they could even have won the game in the end.

"United will have taken a lot of positives from that second half performance. We know that they are capable of doing that so we need make sure we are on top form.

"I know a number of their lads from England duty. I know Danny Welbeck very well and he will be a massive threat on Saturday. We'll need to keep him quiet and a few others as well.

"I also know the likes of Phil Jones, Chris Smalling and Tom Cleverley from the U21s - they are a good bunch of lads and good footballers.

"United have some great players and are a massive team to play against. It will be as tough as ever going there on Saturday.

"We just have to concentrate on our game and ensure we play at the level we know we can."

Henderson has been involved in both games against United this season, and after sitting out the Tottenham game on the bench, is eager to return to the starting XI on Saturday.

He said: "It was the manager's decision that I didn't play against Spurs and I have to accept that.

"I feel fine and I'm good physically.

"They have been great games to be involved in.

"I had played in Sunderland v Newcastle matches before so I knew what to expect. Liverpool v United is another big derby.

"It means a lot to the fans and everyone involved in the club. We have to make sure we put in a good performance and do our best to win the game.

"Beating them in the FA Cup was great but I don't think that gives us an edge.

"I don't think there's a psychological boost for anyone.

"Saturday is about two good games playing against each other and the best team on the day will win."
