Manchester United take part in the standout fixture of the Premier League weekend when they visit local rivals Manchester City on Sunday.
The Red Devils have been handed an extremely challenging assignment on their return from the international break but will take solace from their dramatic comeback victory over their neighbours at the Etihad Stadium last season. Even in their darkest moments, United have achieved success against Pep Guardiola’s side.
It’s been an underwhelming beginning to the campaign for Ruben Amorim’s men but they did earn their first victory of the term at home to Burnley last time out. It was a nervy but deserved 3–2 win that will boost confidence ahead of the derby.
United secured all three points against the Clarets but came away with several casualties that will limit Amorim’s options at the Etihad. Injuries are already causing issues for the Portuguese head coach, who has some big decisions to make for Sunday.
Here’s how United could line up.
