The mood in Manchester United's dressing room ahead of Man City fixture

Manchester United centre-back Victor Lindelof insists everyone within the squad is "looking forward" to Sunday's showdown with derby rivals City at the Etihad Stadium.

United, who were beaten 2-0 by City at Old Trafford in the reverse fixture back in November, will make the short hop across town looking to get back to winning ways. The Reds were held to a goalless draw by lowly Watford last weekend at Old Trafford, despite creating more than enough chances to secure all three points.

The draw with Watford, coupled with West Ham's win over Wolves less than 24 later, saw United's grip on fourth-place reduced to just two points. West Ham play first this weekend, travelling to Liverpool on Saturday evening, so the top four picture could change again by the time the derby kicks off on Sunday (4.30pm kick off).
