Following a run of four consecutive Premier League defeats to the Red Devils, the England international is desperate to see his side emerge victorious on Thursday
Adam Lallana is keen to get his first taste of victory over Manchester United as a Liverpool player.
The Reds have lost all four meetings against their fierce rivals since Lallana moved north from Southampton in 2014.
However Lallana and his team-mates have the chance to make amends when United travel to Anfield for the first leg of an eagerly anticipated Europa League last-16 tie on Thursday.
And the England international says he is desperate to see Liverpool reverse the form book and inflict a first defeat in this fixture on Red Devils boss Louis van Gaal.
"I've not won a game against Manchester United in my time here and we want to put that right," Lallana told a pre-match news conference.
"I think it will be just like a Premier League game. It's got the makings of a special tie.
"You don't have to be local to understand the significance of this rivalry. You feel the importance in the build-up."
United and Liverpool disappointingly lie sixth and seventh respectively in the Premier League, despite recent improvements in form.
Liverpool's last-gasp 2-1 victory at Crystal Palace marked the first time this season they have won three consecutive league games and Lallana, who scored in the preceding 3-0 triumph at home to Manchester City, feels Thursday's high-profile showdown could be arriving at the perfect time.
"It's a good moment for us at the minute," he said. "We've won three in a row and we're aiming to finish the season with something special.
"We've played well against so-called bigger teams this season. We're confident we can get through over the two legs."
