One of the most important Premier League matches of the season will take place on Monday night at Old Trafford between Liverpool and Manchester United. And August isn't even over yet.
The two most successful clubs in English football will square off tonight in a game early in the season with a lot on the line. After two discouraging draws against Fulham and Crystal Palace, Jurgen Klopp's team will go to Manchester keen to record their first victory of the new season.

However, the Red Devils and their new manager Erik ten Hag are under even more pressure as a result of United's terrible start to the Dutchman's tenure, which included two straight losses, including a humiliating 4-0 thrashing at the hands of Brentford last time out.
With a victory at home tonight, despite their shaky start, United might surpass their rivals in the north west, while Liverpool has the chance to make up for the early lead they conceded to championship rivals Manchester City by winning another illustrious match at Old Trafford. Last season's comparable match saw the Reds pull off a convincing 5-0 victory, so Klopp would like a repeat performance.
Here's how to follow the action if you're not one of the lucky 75,000 to have a ticket for tonight's match, which continues to be one of the most watched in English football.
