Manchester United vs Liverpool: How to watch on TV, live stream, kick-off time, team news

Manchester United have made a poor start to the Premier League campaign, losing both of their opening fixtures and crushing to the bottom of the table in the process. Now they have their biggest test yet as they host title hopefuls, Liverpool, on Monday evening.
