Gary Neville has announced a never-before-seen broadcast ahead of the upcoming Premier League fixture between Arsenal and Manchester United.
The two sides face off on December 4 at an 8:15pm kick-off, with the match potentially crucial in maintaining Arsenal's hopes of being involved in this season's Premier League title race.
It will be Ruben Amorim's fourth game in charge of United, meanwhile, following his official appointment as manager earlier this week.
As a result, the fixture could have significant implications - and it will be accompanied by a major broadcast change.

The match will not be broadcast on Sky Sports, as it is part of the midweek package of games broadcast by Amazon Prime Video in a repeat scenario of last season.
As a result, Sky Sports regulars Neville, Jamie Carragher and Roy Keane, as well as their Overlap co-pundits Jill Scott and Ian Wright, will not be on punditry duty for the match.
And Neville has revealed on The Overlap's Stick to Football that he has a plan for an alternative broadcast for the match - and it has never been done in such a way in English football.
He said: "We [Neville and Wright] were driving along a few weeks ago. Man Utd play Arsenal on a Wednesday night and Ian suggested a watchalong.
"So we're going to do a Stick to Football watchalong, Man Utd vs Arsenal, live in here on December 4."
Keane asked: "So we're just going to be watching the game like we would at home? So, swearing given up?"
While that appears to be confirmation from Keane that he will be present, it appears he will at least be joining Neville and Wright on the watchalong.
Scott confirmed that she cannot attend as she will be working as part of the ITV team on 'I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here' - a show that she won in 2022.
Carragher did not confirm whether he would attend.
While watchalongs are common on YouTube fan channels - Sky themselves even had a specific FanZone option on the Red Button which featured a fan from each team reacting to live action - it has never been done live by pundits.
