The second U.S. presidential debate takes place on Sunday night with Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton set to clash on an even wider range of issues, and especially following controversies surrounding both candidates in recent weeks we can expect this second debate to be even more heated than the first.

The debate will be held in a Town Hall format and will be hosted by ABC's Martha Raddatz and CNN's Anderson Cooper at Washington University in St. Louis, Missouri.

The second presidential debate will be available to watch on all major broadcast news networks except NBC which will be airing NFL Sunday Night Football with a game between the New York Giants and Green Bay Packers taking place from 8.30 p.m. ET. NBC will, however, be airing the debate live on their YouTube Channel.

Tonight's debate will have a start time of 9 p.m. ET (6 p.m. PT) and can be watched on TV on the ABC, CBS, CNN, C-SPAN, Fox, Fox News, MSNBC and PBS networks, or online through free live stream by clicking here.

The Town Hall style of tonight's debate will see half the questions posed to the candidates come directly from the "undecided" voters attending in the audience.

The other half of the questions will come from the two moderators, who should be basing their questions "on topics of broad public interest as reflected in social media and other sources," according to the Commission of Presidential Debates.

With just about a month remaining until the election both candidates have come under fire since the last debate for various reasons.

The Trump campaign has suffered some endorsement withdrawals and some calls to even step down from his campaign after a 2005 recording was promoted on various media outlets showing the Republican candidate joking about sexual assault and talking crudely about women.

However, that was overshadowed by the Wikileaks release of emails from Hillary Clinton advisor John Podesta. The emails reveal the transcripts from Clinton's much-talked about Wall Street speeches for which she was paid astronomical amounts, and the content of which have remained secret until now.

The speeches were of course a repeated line of attack on Clinton from fellow Democratic candidate Bernie Sanders in the primaries. The refusal to release the content of the speeches from Clinton led many to insinuate that Clinton was too close to the so-called fat cats of Wall Street, and that she would look out for their interests above those of the working and middle class.

Both of those issues are likely to come up tonight in the debate, and Trump has already indicated following his first debate performance that he would no longer be holding back in any way against Clinton in the final two debates.
