The return of Masters football will be shown on 360 Sports Television, a sports documentary streaming service.

So, who's going to be in the game? 

Well, Louis Saha will lead the line for the Red Devils, with another striker still to be announced. 

Along with Karel Poborsky and ex-midfielder Darren Gibson, Quinton Fortune is included in the eight-man squad.

Wes Brown and John O'Shea, both five-time Premier League winners, will form a defensive partnership. 

Paul Rachubka, who has only made three appearances for the Red Devils in his professional career, will start in goal. 

At the Brahead Arena in Glasgow next month, that team will face off against fierce rivals Liverpool. 

And the Reds' lineup for the match on July 8 is surely intriguing.

Jamie Carragher and former Liverpool teammate Stephen Warnock are both in the squad, with Sander Westerveld in goal. 

Steve McManaman and Stewart Downing, both wide receivers, will be featured. 

The Reds' forward group, which includes Luis Garcia and Jermaine Pennant, will be tasked with scoring the goals. 

The winner of United's match against Liverpool will meet the winner of Celtic's match against Rangers in the final, which will consist of two eight-minute halves. 

Here's a look at who will be playing in the mini-Old Firm showdown. 

Carlton Cole, a former England international who spent one season at Celtic Park during his playing career, will lead the line. 

Stiliyan Petrov and Joe Ledley, both Premier League veterans, are available in midfield. 

The eight-man group also includes Kris Commons and Simon Donnelly. 

Kevin and Mark Wilson, the team's namesakes, will play defense, with Rab Douglas in goal. 

Last but not least, the Gers Alan Hutton and Carlos Cuellar, former Aston Villa colleagues, will rejoin for Masters football. 

Rob Carroll, the goalkeeper, will be protected. 

Former Ibrox heroes Barry Ferguson and Lee McCulloch, as well as Pedro Mendes, have been included in the squad. 

Kris Boyd and Michel Mols will try to lead the Gers to the Masters title.
