Manchester United vs Man City LIVE: Early team news plus how to watch and kick-off time

It's Manchester derby day! Manchester United will be hoping to boost their chances of European qualification this season with a win this afternoon, while Manchester City will look to pile the pressure on Arsenal by taking three points from their trip to Old Trafford.

City are currently six points behind leaders Arsenal after a run of three league games without a win. United are seventh and have failed to capitalise on a favourable run of fixtures, though they are still just three points off Liverpool in fourth.

In terms of the team news, Matthijs de Ligt is expected to be the only United player missing through injury this afternoon. City's injury list is mounting, with Josko Gvardiol, Savinho, Mateo Kovacic, Oscar Bobb, John Stones and Ruben Dias all set to miss the trip across town this afternoon. Nico Gonzalez is also an injury doubt and a late call will be made on whether he will feature in today's game.
