Where to watch Liverpool match today in Manchester?

Liverpool are playing today and I'm trying to work out the best way to watch it from Manchester. I know that sounds strange given how football mad the city is, but my current setup is pretty limited.

I don't have Sky Sports or TNT Sports at home, and I'm not on Virgin Media either, so there's no easy TV option. I've used NOW TV in the past for day passes, but paying again and again over a season gets expensive pretty quickly. For someone who mainly watches Liverpool games, it doesn't really feel worth it.

Going to a pub is always an option in Manchester, but some places get absolutely rammed for Liverpool matches, and I'm not always in the mood to deal with crowds just to watch a game.

I know a lot of people around here use IPTV services that include Sky Sports, TNT Sports and Premier League channels. There are loads of UK based IPTV providers about, but reliability during big matches is always the concern.

I've also seen Ant Sports mentioned quite a lot as an alternative for watching Liverpool matches live without a full TV subscription.

Just wondering what people in Manchester are actually using these days to watch Liverpool reliably.
