Man United Vs Man City Team News

Carlos Baleba, Matthijs de Ligt, Manuel Ugarte, Tom Heaton and Amad Diallo will miss the derby owing to injury. Michael Carrick has a tough call to make up top which could see Marcus Rashford start on the bench in favour of an attacking quartet of Bryan Mbuemo, Bruno Fernandes, Matheus Cunha and Benjamin Sesko.

As for Man City, it’s crystal clear that Erling Haaland will lead the line for Enzo Maresca. The Norwegian megastar has scored eight times in seven Premier League Manchester derbies but only two of those efforts have come at Old Trafford. Elsewhere, Nico O’Reilly is fit but Jeremy Doku isn’t ready to return yet.
