Team News

Man Utd
Man City
  • Marcus Rashford has scored in all of his appearances for United since the World Cup and is expected to play a key role.
  • Luke Shaw looks set to remain at centre-back, the England international having looked solid alongside Raphael Varane of late.
  • Diogo Dalot is out after having a setback with a hamstring injury.
  • Donny van de Beek remains sidelined long-term through injury.
  • Ruben Dias is still out with a hamstring injury.
  • John Stones is also out with an injury for this game.
  • Guardiola could look to change up his starting XI after a shock 2-0 league cup defeat to Southampton.
  • After a decent run of form, Rico Lewis could be favoured over Kyle Walker at right-back.

Prediction

  • Manchester City will be looking to get back to winning ways after their defeat to Southampton in the League Cup on Wednesday. On the flip side, Manchester United will be looking to build on their quarter-final win and record their first win at Old Trafford against their neighbours since March 2020.
  • Man City have been through a mixed run of form since the World Cup with a shock draw against Everton followed by two victories over Chelsea in a week and a defeat to Southampton. United have been on fire in 2023.
  • Haaland has scored 21 Premier League goals, including a 30-minute hattrick in the reverse fixture. His match-up against Rafael Varane and Luke Shaw will be one to watch.
  • Marcus Rashford has scored seven goals in six games for United and has a very strong record in this fixture with three goals and one assist, including a 90th-minute winner in only his fourth game for Man United.
  • City have won four of their last five matches against United and Guardiola will be looking to take all three points to keep the pressure on league leaders Arsenal.
