Today's Premier League match between Manchester United and Man City at Old Trafford will be a statement match.
Since their return to competitive play following the World Cup, Erik ten Hag's team has been in terrific form, but they are aware that their boisterous neighbors will present an even greater challenge.
In their last three Premier League encounters, United has given up 12 goals, including six during their October meeting at the Etihad Stadium. It equals the number of goals they had allowed in their previous 12 encounters combined.
Early team news states that Anthony Martial will have a late fitness test and that Diogo Dalot is unavailable. Wout Weghorst did not register in time to participate.
In place of Dalot, Wan-Bissaka must start, and Ten Hag must get Varane and Martinez back together. The most crucial player for United, the former, suffered an injury three months ago when the score was 1-0 at the Etihad.
With the lineup above, Manchester United will definitely win against Man city, considering the fact that Manchester United are on top form . It is on rare occasion that Man U loses a derby while they are on red hot form.
