Manchester United will be looking for a victory against rivals Manchester City in their Premier League clash this weekend.
Manchester United endured a disappointing return to Premier League action earlier this week, suffering a 1-0 loss to Nottingham Forest at the City Ground.
Ruben Amorim and his squad won’t have much time to reflect on that setback, with a pivotal showdown against arch-rivals Manchester City looming on Sunday afternoon.
United’s attacking struggles were evident against Forest, and Amorim may be weighing up potential changes to his forward line ahead of the highly anticipated derby.
