Arne Slot's Liverpool travel the short distance to Manchester today to take on Erik Ten Hag's Red Devils at Old Trafford.
Both teams met stateside in August for a pre-season friendly which resulted in a 3-0 win for Liverpool, but United fans will choose to remember the last time their neighbours came to Old Trafford and the way that game ended.
In March, with Klopp still at the helm, both teams were drawn against each other in the FA Cup quarter final.
It was an end-to-end affair that went to extra time and ended with substitute Amad Diallo scoring a late breakaway winner to put United through to the semi-final.
Of course, as we know, United went on to win the FA Cup by beating Manchester City in May at Wembley - a victory that seemed to keep Ten Hag in his job for another season.
Liverpool have had an emphatic start to their season with wins away to Ipswich Town and at home to Brentford. Mo Salah, Diogo Jota and Luis Diaz all look to be enjoying life under Slot so far.
United, on the other hand, struggled away at Brighton & Hove Albion last weekend and lost 2-1 to Fabian Hurzeler's side thanks to a late goal from Joao Pedro.
Three points in their first two games is not the start United fans would have wanted considering the money they spent this summer.
Manchester United vs Liverpool kicks off at 4pm, and you can follow all of the action here in our live hub.
