Team news:

Man Utd:

  • Henrikh Mkhitaryan is a doubt after coming off in the first half of Armenia's defeat in the Czech Republic on 31 August, and he has since tweeted, "Not sure yet if I'll be fit for the derby, but I'm motivated as ever to put all energy to be in great shape asap!".

  • Marouane Fellaini missed the first of Belgium's two matches after hurting his back in the Hull game but he played 84 minutes of their second fixture, in Cyprus on Tuesday night.

  • Luke Shaw, meanwhile, withdrew from the England squad in Slovakia due to an ache in his calf but boss Sam Allardyce said the left-back's return to Manchester was just a precautionary measure.

Man City:

  • City's striker, Sergio Aguero, is ruled out following a three-match ban on Saturday, having been retrospectively charged with violent conduct following the win against West Ham.

I can't see this game ending 0-0. Not at Old Trafford. All of Stones' distribution skills won't mean squat when having to deal with aerial balls to Zlatan, Fellaini and Pogba in the box. Huge responsibilities for both Shaw and Valencia on both ends of the field.

Time for Rashford to make all the City fans who wank off Iheanacho as the better striker shut the fuck up

There are chances that Rashford will get the nod over Martial given his stellar form (4 goals in 2 matches for club and country). It's difficult to ignore his current form while picking the starting XI. I think Mourinho should consider this guy over any other player on the left wing.

Other than that I expect an unchanged squad against Pep's City.

I reckon Rashford starts tomorrow. Maybe ahead of Martial, possibly Mata. There's a chance neither Martial nor Mata start, I reckon.

I hope Rashford starts, probably replace Mata in the starting lineup.

15-0 boys

Set pieces. Quite adamant we'll win it off that. We just have the height advantage, Mourinho isn't afraid to play for them, I think that and the bus is our gameplan.

I'm so scared in the sense that I have no idea how this game could go! Both ourselves and City have played 3 games each, and in all games we've both had all of the ball. We haven't had to deal with much attacking power, and either have they. This game will be decided on defensive errors in my opinion. It's going to be interesting to say the least.
