United travel to the Etihad to face City for the Manchester derby in the Premier League on Sunday.

City have won 21 consecutive matches across all competitions, and defeated Wolves 4-1 in midweek.

Meanwhile, Manchester United have struggled recently, with dismal goalless draws against Chelsea and Crystal Palace derailing any lingering title hopes.
