Manchester United handed Diogo Dalot injury scare before Man City derby showdown

Manchester United have been handed an injury scare before their derby showdown vs Manchester City.

Starting in a changed United line-up against Carabao Cup opponents Charlton on Tuesday night, Diogo Dalot was one first-choice option selected by Erik ten Hag at Old Trafford, with Pep Guardiola and his star-studded City ready to visit the same venue on Saturday lunchtime. But there are now question marks over Dalot for that game.
