Manchester United and Manchester City will be involved in the first Manchester derby of the season this Saturday.

Although the 3-0 win against Tottenham on the previous weekend put an end to United's four-game winless run in the Premier League, in Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's admission, the 5-0 humiliation at hands of Liverpool has not been forgotten and a positive result against City will help further turn the corner.

The Cityzens, too, need to undo the shock of losing 0-2 to Crystal Palace at home while looking to leapfrog Liverpool at least momentarily and close the gap on Chelsea at the top.
