FROM EARLIER:
That's it from us at OneFootball. What was your favourite moment from the weekend? Let us know in the comments below.
Here's some match reaction from game winner, Harry Maguire.
Talk about a turnaround for Amorim!
The result means Liverpool sit third in the table while Manchester are ninth.
The last time Manchester United won at Anfield was under Louis van Gaal in the 2015/16 season.
Back to the drawing board for Slot...
FULL TIME: Liverpool 1-2 Man Utd
And that's that! The final whistle blows as Manchester United deny Liverpool following a late rally. What a match.
Amorim, meanwhile, could win back-to-back Premier League games for the first time here.
The last time Liverpool lost four in a row across all competitions was in 2014.
We have eight minutes of added time at Anfield. Buckle up.
Amorim said his team had to be aggressive during his pre-match media duties, and they've certainly delivered. Could this be the confidence boost United need?
HUGE CHANCE!
Oh Gakpo has gone from zero to hero and back to zero? The Dutchman was left wide open but somehow steered his header beyond the post.
Only six minutes separated Gakpo's equaliser and Maguire's go-ahead goal.
GOAL! Liverpool 1-2 Man Utd (84')
My word! After the equaliser you would have thought the Manchester United would have been destablized, but that's not the case.
Up rises Harry Maguire who beats Konate in the air and heads home for the lead again.
Visiting fans would have hoped this was offside, but Gakpo stayed on thanks to Dorgu's leg.
Things have lit up inside Anfield now. Can Man Utd hold on?
GOAL! Liverpool 1-1 Man Utd (78')
At long last for Gakpo. From a hat-trick of shots hitting the woodwork to finally turning the ball home. It's the Dutchman who turns things 1-1 from only a few yards out.
One more sub from the hosts. Isak, who really didn't do much, has come off for Federico Chiesa. Can the Italian save the day?
CHANCE!
Now it's Hugo Ekitike's turn to go just short. The forward cuts inside when one-on-one with Diogo Dalot but drags his powerful shot past the far right post.
Chocolate, the best friendship starter.
CHANCE!
Salah again comes only a bit of space away from a potential equaliser after peeling off the back of Dorgu. Lammens made himself big to deny any angle.
More subs now. Benjamin Šeško comes on for the visitors as Mason Mount makes way.
Meanwhile, Arne Slot turns to Florian Wirtz, Curtis Jones and Hugo Ekitike. Off come Ryan Gravenberch, Alexis Mac Allister and Conor Bradley.
Amorim going with some changes now. Amad and Casemiro, who just earned the first two yellow cards of the match come off for Patrick Dorgu and Manuel Ugarte.
Unlucky unlucky unlucky.
CHANCE!
My oh my, the woodwork is taking a beating today! Cody Gakpo with yet another effort off the post as he goes agonisingly close again.
SECOND HALF UNDERWAY
The players are back out on the pitch. We have 45 minutes of more drama coming up. Who will come out on top? Let us know in the comments below.
A half to forget for Isak. When will he shake off the bad luck?
HALF-TIME: Liverpool 0-1 Man Utd
Everyone take a breath!
There have been 12 shots combined throughout the first half, and every single could have been a goal. A match for the neutrals!
Don't brush off Bryan Mbeumo.
CHANCE!
Senne Lammens is now earning some attention. The goalkeeper made a huge stop to deny Isak again, who was through on goal.
A look at Mac Allister, who managed to continue after the head collision in the build up to the opener.
CHANCE!
Maybe if he was wearing Newcastle colours there would be less pressure, but Alexander Isak misses a great attempt to draw level.
CHANCE(S)!
Make this not one but two big chances to find the next goal, courtesy of the visitors. But Liverpool goalkeeper Giorgi Mamardashvili comes up with a clutch double save.
CHANCE!
United seem to be lying and waiting to strike today. The opener was an example of that and now it's Bruno Fernandes who out of nowhere sends his shot wide of the post. He'll want that back for sure.
CHANCE!
My oh my. We've really have a game here. Anfield is rocking and it was inches away from being 1-1 but Cody Gakpo's long range effort hit the post. Agony for Liverpool.
Penalty appeal here for Liverpool after the ball hits off of Amad's arm but nothing given.
Salah is moving and grooving today. He loves playing against Manchester United. Could he bring the hosts back into it?
Anfield crowd really trying to get behind their team here after 15 minutes.
CHANCE!
It's almost an equaliser for Liverpool. Mo Salah drills in a free-kick, but a diving Virgil van Dijk can't get his diving header on target.
And the opener is a bit of history here, too.
It's the first time a goal has been scored within the first two minutes of these clubs facing each other in the Premier League since 1995.
Now Liverpool supporters won't love what's happened there either. In the build up to the goal Alexis MacAllister suffered a head injury but referee Michael Oliver deemed play was allowed to continue.
And here's the celebration that silenced Anfield after 62 seconds.
GOAL! Liverpool 0-1 Man Utd (2')
We didn't even have a chance to press update on the blog, and we have a goal.
Amad Diallo slips Bryan Mbuemo through in the box and despite a sliding Ibrahima Konaté he finishes into the opposite left corner.
KICK OFF!
Here we go at Anfield.
A reminder of the starting lineups for you as we're about five minutes before kickoff.
Some pre-match talk from Ruben Amorim. This is going to be a huge 90 minutes for United away from home.
One to forget for Spurs after their early goal.
Some stats on your Villa matchwinner.
And now drum roll please for the big one coming up...
FULL TIME! TOTTENHAM 1-2 ASTON VILLA

Spurs have created very little since that Villa goal.
They have seven minutes of added time to do something.

He hasn't lost to Frank in five previous meetings, and that looks set to extend to six barring some late drama.
Nine minutes plus added time for Spurs to rescue themselves.
They're staring down the barrel of a second home loss of the season already after four games.
That's Buendía's third goal in his last four games.

He cuts the ball back to Buendía, who finds the bottom corner with a lovely left-footed finish under next to no pressure.
Emery's substitution pays off in style.
Like in the first 45, Villa have played themselves into the second half.
It's 20 league games between these sides since there was a draw.
Less than 20 minutes away from a first stalemate since May 2012.
Both sides have freshened up their attacks with Thomas Frank bringing Richarlison for Mathys Tel.
Ollie Watkins and Emi Buendía are on for Donyell Malen and Evann Guessand.
Could one of the subs grab the winner?
Donyell Malen fires just wide with Villa's first effort of the half.
Spurs very much on top here but Villa are defending well, with a strong offside line on display.

Rogers' stunning strike cancelled out Bentancur's early opener, and we're level at the break.
Into five minutes of added time.
Can either side strike before the break?

A bolt from the blue for the claret and blues!
Morgan Rogers takes the ball away from Xavi Simons before unleashing a rocket from 25 yards out.

The game has settled down somewhat but Spurs are getting chances in transition.

Villa catch Spurs out again with their high-line.
It's a risky strategy, though, with so much pace in the home side's front line.
CLOSE!
Matty Cash blasts just wide of Guglielmo Vicario's post with Villa's first real effort.
The right-back is the scorer of Villa's only away league goal so far this season.
GOAL RULED OUT FOR SPURS!
Kudus thinks he's got Spurs' second moments later, but he's ruled offside.
What a start.
GOAL! SPURS TAKE THE LEAD!
That didn't take long!
Rodrigo Bentancur opens the scoring. smashing home from six yards out after Micky van de Ven's header found him in acres of space.
Mohamed Kudus whipped a brilliant ball in for the Dutch defender to attack, and Villa failed to deal with both him and the midfielder.
The big news was the withdrawal of Spurs skipper Cristian Romero from the lineup after pulling up in the warm up.
