An exciting first week of play in the Barclays Premier League comes to a conclusion on Monday when Manchester United travels to Gooderson Park to take on Everton. Kick-off time is scheduled for 8 p.m. local time (3:00 p.m. ET in the United States).
The match will be broadcast live in the United States on ESPN2, and can be viewed online at WatchESPN.com or using the WatchESPN app on mobile devices. Fans viewing the live stream will have their choice of English or Spanish-language commentary.
The match could feature the Manchester United debut of newly-acquired striker Robin van Persie. The reigning PFA Player of the Year and Football Writers' Footballer of the Year officially joined the Red Devils from Arsenal on Friday, but van Persie is not expected to start for Sir Alex Ferguson's club on Monday. United should, however, see the debut of Japanese international midfielder Shinji Kangawa, who joined the team from Borussia Dortmund in June.
Everton, meanwhile, is looking to build on a seventh place finish in last year's Premier League, and could see the debuts of Steven Naismith and Steven Pienaar (as a full-time Toffee) on Monday. Goalkeeper Tim Howard returns to the Everton net after backstopping the U.S. men's national team to its first-ever win over Mexico on Mexican soil in an international friendly last Wednesday.
