Following the heavy snowfall in the country, Liverpool City Council's Safety Advisory Group held a meeting to determine whether the game would go ahead. However, a decision has been deferred to 12pm.
"The City's Ground Safety Advisory Group is reconvening at midday to discuss the match given that weather conditions may be changing," the Liverpool City Council told Manchester Evening News.
In the EFL, Chesterfield vs Gillingham and Fleetwood Town vs AFC Wimbledon have both been postponed amid the adverse weather conditions, although Crewe Alexandra vs Bromley will be going ahead.
A statement from Manchester United, which followed Liverpool's, was shared on X, formerly Twitter. It read: "Our match against Liverpool is set to still go ahead at this stage, despite snow and weather warnings in the North West today.
"Take care if you are travelling to the game — we will update you with the latest developments."
Inspections also took place at Chepstow and Plumpton racecourses to see whether racing could go ahead. An update shared on X at 10.15am confirmed races at Plumpton had been abandoned due to weather, although Chepstow confirmed its course had passed inspection and races were going ahead.
