How Man City should line up vs Manchester United in Premier League derby

Pep Guardiola will be looking for a response from his Manchester City players after their dismal Carabao Cup exit at Southampton in midweek, when they take on Manchester United in the derby this lunchtime.

With a quick turnaround between full-time at St Mary's and kick-off at Old Trafford, Guardiola will likely make a number of changes to his team - especially after leaving many of his more senior options on the bench for the 2-0 defeat at Southampton.

Kevin De Bruyne, Erling Haaland, Rodri, Nathan Ake and Manuel Akanji were all called upon to try and salvage City's Carabao Cup campaign, while Bernardo Silva, Ederson and Riyad Mahrez were all unused substitutes. Guardiola must also decide whether to stick with Kyle Walker, Joao Cancelo and Phil Foden after unconvincing outings on Wednesday.
