History is against Ruben Amorim as the Portuguese gets his first taste of the Manchester derby in his latest tactical battle against Pep Guardiola. The Spaniard has beaten every Manchester United manager he has faced in their first derby game.
Overall, Guardiola boasts a record of 13 wins, eight defeats and two draws leading Manchester City against their local rivals, with 47 goals for and 32 against. This tells a story of power shifting in a fixture where United were previously dominant – they still lead the all-time head-to-head record with 78 wins, 61 losses and 54 draws.
