Up for yet another challenge? We’re back with today’s instalment of Teamsheet… Mail Sport’s original football memory game that separates best from the rest when it comes to football knowledge.

How does it work? A starting XI from a random match in Premier League history will be given to you, with a rough formation and the number of letters on each players’ names already provided. From there, you need to try and name the line-up with the fewest attempts as possible.

The big talking point this weekend is how Arne Slot will fare against Erik ten Hag as bitter rivals Liverpool and Manchester United lock horns at Old Trafford. Before Jurgen Klopp arrived at Anfield in October 2015, Brendan Rodgers‘ Liverpool were beaten 2-1 by United the season prior. Can you remember the Red Devils who beat them nearly a decade ago?

Good luck!

HOW TO PLAY

The aim of the game is to score as few points as possible!

If you guess a player at the first attempt you score one point – so the lowest score for guessing every player at the first attempt is 11.

Guess a correct letter in the right position, and it’ll turn green. Guess a correct letter but in the wrong position, and it’ll turn yellow.

You have six guesses for each player. If you’re struggling to remember a player, you can ask for a free letter, but it’ll cost you a point and a guess. And if you use up all six guesses, we’ll tell you their name but it costs you 11 points.

So play on to see if you’ll score the best possible total of 11 – or fail on every player and score 121.

You can play two games a day, so make sure to come back tomorrow.
