Manchester City will face Manchester United in the first derby of the season. City is the heavy favorite, having won their last matches, while United's performances have been unconvincing. City's team is expected to be strong with the return of key players.
Manchester City will be aiming to continue their winning streak when they face Manchester United on Sunday.
As a result City will be the heavy favourites for the derby. Pep Guardiola will be without the suspended Manuel Akanji but has no injury concerns other than long-term absentee Kevin De Bruyne. Bernardo Silva has a track record of excellence at Old Trafford and he should be perfect to come in and float between positions, helping out Rodri but also mingling with Foden and Julian Alvarez behind Erling Haaland. The more confusion City can create around the United midfield and defence, the better.I'd be tempted to find a way to fit Rico Lewis into the line-up after a man of the match performance in midweek, but he may only get a chance if Foden isn't fit enough to start.
