It is Manchester United’s turn to host the Manchester derby this season, welcoming Manchester City to Old Trafford in the Premier League.

The Manchester derby in October saw Manchester United fall to a 6-3 defeat against Manchester City at the Etihad stadium, however the context of this fixture is incredibly different compared to October.

Erik ten Hag‘s man are on an incredible seven-game win streak in all competitions, scoring 21 goals and conceding just four. They have also been victorious in their last eight fixtures at Old Trafford, with Marcus Rashford scoring at least one goal in every match.
