THE TEAM NEWS

MAN UTD

  • Man Utd extended their good run of form by drawing at Everton last weekend to keep hot on the heels of Chelsea in the fight for fourth spot.
  • Ole Gunnar Solskjaer rotated his pack for the FA Cup clash with Derby on Thursday night but will bring back all his key men for the derby.
  • Wan-Bissaka and James are dealing with injuries but the former is expected to overcome his knock and take his place in the back four.

Predicted line-up (4-1-2-1-2): De Gea; Wan-Bissaka, Lindelof, Maguire, Shaw; Matic; Fred, McTominay; Fernandes; Martial, Greenwood

Unavailable: Pogba (Injured), Rashford (Injured), Grant (Injured), Tuanzebe (Injured), Fosu-Mensah (Injured)

Doubtful: Wan-Bissaka (Injured), James (Injured), Maguire (Injured)

MAN CITY

  • Man City made it five straight wins in all competitions as they did enough to overcome Sheffield Wednesday in their midweek FA Cup contest.
  • City will still be without the influential Aymeric Laporte after he picked up a thigh injury in last week's UCL game with Read Madrid.
  • Kevin De Bruyne could also be missing for Pep Guardiola's men after he sat out the FA Cup victory with a shoulder injury.

Predicted line-up (4-3-3): Ederson; Walker, Otamendi, Fernandinho, Zinchenko; Bernardo Silva, Rodri, Gundogan; Sterling, Gabriel Jesus, Mahrez

Unavailable: Laporte (Injured), Sane (Injured)

Doubtful: De Bruyne (Injured)

THE PREDICTION

Man City appear to be hitting form at just the right time having won their last five games but their focus will revert to Premier League action after a run of three cup matches. Man Utd have improved of late but this is a stiff test for them and the visitors should be able to earn at least a point as a minimum.
