Manchester United Vs Manchester City At 15:05 by blazingkid21(m): 10:47am On Oct 25, 2015 |
Scene setter : Manchester United are back at Old Trafford after three successive away games for the 170th derby clash with neighbours Manchester City, with the sides separated by two points in the Barclays Premier League's top three ahead of the match. Both home teams claimed the bragging rights in last season’s meetings, with United ending a run of four consecutive derby defeats thanks to a 4-2 win in April. Form guide : United are searching for a fifth straight home win in all competitions and can go above current leaders City with three points on Sunday. After easing past Everton last weekend, the Reds needed a second-half header from Anthony Martial to rescue a draw in Moscow on Wednesday night in the Champions League, while City came from behind to beat Sevilla at the Etihad Stadium to clinch a fourth successive victory since losing 4-1 at Tottenham Hotspur. Team news : United are likely to be without the injured James Wilson, Ashley Young and Paddy McNair, alongside long-term absentee Luke Shaw. Michael Carrick, Juan Mata, Matteo Darmian and Memphis Depay could earn recalls after sitting on the bench in midweek. City are without top scorer Sergio Aguero and Samir Nasri with hamstring injuries, while Gael Clichy and Fabian Delph are also expected to be ruled out again. Captain Vincent Kompany is still a fitness doubt despite returning from a calf injury against Sevilla as a late substitute but David Silva may return after a two-game absence with ankle and foot problems. Betting: United's official betting partner, Marathonbet, rate the Reds as 33/20 favourites to take the derby spoils this weekend. A draw is 127/50 with an away win priced at 181/100. Sign up with Marathonbet via manutd.com/bet to check out the latest odds. Star man : Kevin De Bruyne has exploded into life for City, with five goals in his first nine appearances following his deadline-day arrival from Wolfsburg. The versatile Belgium international can operate effectively across a number of attacking positions and has the ability to cause problems for in-form Chris Smalling and the rest of the United defence. Sub-plot : Wayne Rooney has the opportunity to equal Denis Law, who played for both Manchester clubs, in second place in United’s all-time scoring charts after netting his 236th goal for the club at Goodison Park last weekend. The United captain can also extend his record as the leading Manchester derby scorer; he has 11 goals already to his name in 23 appearances against City. Referee: FIFA official Mark Clattenburg will take charge of his third Manchester derby and his eighth Premier League game of the season on Sunday. The County Durham whistler was also in the middle when the sides met at Old Trafford last season. Rivals watch: Champions Chelsea travel to London rivals West Ham United on Saturday afternoon and second-placed Arsenal host Everton in the evening kick-off at the Emirates Stadium. Immediately after the full-time whistle sounds at Old Trafford, Liverpool face Southampton in Jurgen Klopp’s first Premier League game at Anfield. |
