Rúben Amorim has handed Benjamin Šeško his first Premier League start as Manchester United line up to face Man City on Sunday afternoon.
Manchester United return to Premier League action this weekend as Rúben Amorim takes his team into a derby showdown with Manchester City.
Neither side have started the season in convincing fashion. United have recorded one win, one draw and one defeat, while City also sit on three points from three games, leaving them 13th in the table.
The clash offers both clubs the chance to shift the momentum of their campaign and, at the same time, push their rivals further into difficulty during this unpredictable opening spell.
The previous meeting at the Etihad saw United stage a dramatic comeback, with Bruno Fernandes and Amad striking late to secure a memorable 2-1 win just before the turn of the year.
The XIs have been confirmed below, with Amorim starting Benjamin Šeško as part of the front three, while Bruno Fernandes is deployed in midfield.
