Manchester is bracing itself for the first derby of the 2022/23 season as United travel to the Etihad Stadium to take on City.

As has become the case in recent years, Pep Guardiola's team are clear favourites for the win. The Blues have yet to taste defeat in the Premier League and sit second in the table, four points behind Arsenal who beat Tottenham Hotspur in the North London derby on Saturday.

Two defeats in his opening two matches looked to have put United on the ropes, before four straight victories in the league since.
