Manchester United vs Manchester City: Preview, Predicted Line-up, Team News, Dream 11, Streaming Details

Bengaluru, January 13: Reigning Premier League champion Manchester City will travel to Old Trafford in an intriguing showdown this weekend to face their neighbours Manchester United.

Nine goals were scored in the first Manchester Derby of the season, six of which went in Pep Guardiola's favor as City recorded a convincing 6-3 victory.

However, since that humiliation in early October, Erik ten Hag has helped Manchester United establish consistency and rhythm.

In 17 matches in Premier League, United have won 14, drawn 2, and lost only one and now are fourth in the standings with a game still to play. They can even move to third spot in the table with a victory on Saturday (January 14).

City despite their shocking defeat in mid-week against Southampton in the Carabao Cup are in a good shape in the league, but are still five points below league leaders Arsenal.

At this stage, they can not afford to lose more points and it surely makes this fixture more interesting for both sides that are in the top four.

Manchester United vs Manchester City team news

The only injury concern Ten Hag faces is of Diogo Dalot. The Portuguese right-back returned for the Carabao Cup clash against Charlton but was forced off in the 34th minute. It remains to be seen whether he will return for the match. Apart from him, United have no other concerns regarding their preferred XI.

Likewise, City will also have one notable absence in Ruben Dias. The 25-year-old sustained a hamstring injury at the World Cup and is expected to be out for another two weeks. Guardiola could use John Stones and Manuel Akanji as a centre back pairing or could look at Aymeric Laporte.
