Team news

Manchester United news

Injured: Raphaël Varane    

Doubt: Victor Lindelöf

Manchester United suffered from a huge blow as Raphael Varane got injured in the first half against Atalanta and has been ruled out for a month with a hamstring problem. 

Luke Shaw could present in the defence if needed but Victor Lindelof should not be deemed fit to start as early as Saturday.

Paul Pogba resumes his domestic three-match ban, but with his disappointing performance in midweek, this is not a major loss for the Red Devils.

Manchester City news

Injured: Ferran Torres

Doubt: Benjamin Mendy    

After his red card in last weekend's 2-0 loss to Crystal Palace, Aymeric Laporte serves a one-match ban and will be replaced by John Stones.

With Ferran Torres unavailable, Kevin De Bruyne or Phil Foden will deputise as the false nine.

Jack Grealish is still settling at City and it wouldn't be a surprise if he is dropped on the bench in this derby.

Manchester United vs. Manchester City predictions

The 3-0 victory against Tottenham and 2-2 draw against Atalanta not only boosted The Red’s morale but also saved Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s job at Old Trafford. In the last 5 matches in England's top league, the Red Devils lost 3, drew 1, won only one match and that was the last match against Tottenham in round 10.

On the other side of the front line, Man City just had a forgettable match in the 10th round. The Citizens, despite playing at home, lost in a very confusing way to Crystal Palace and this defeat raised doubts about their consistency. However, in terms of performance, Man City is still slightly better than Man United when winning 3, drawing 1 and losing 1 after the last 5 matches.

Prediction: Manchester United 1-3 Manchester City
