Manchester United and Manchester City will each be going in search of the local bragging rights when they meet at Old Trafford in the latest instalment of the Manchester derby on Saturday lunchtime.
United, who have not beaten City on their own patch since March 2020, head into the contest with a strong run of form in their sails, winning each of their last eight matches in league and cup. The Reds cruised into the semi-finals of the Carabao Cup in midweek, beating League One side Charlton Athletic 3-0.
Their 3-0 win over the Addicks marked a ninth successive home win for Erik ten Hag's side, meaning they will have ambitions of continuing their excellent record in M16. They have not lost on their own patch since being beaten 1-0 by Real Sociedad in the Europa League on September 8.
