It's the 175th Manchester derby between Manchester United and Manchester City at Old Trafford. It's also the 16th match for each team in the 2017-18 Premier League season.


Man City

David Silva is fit for Sunday's derby but captain Vincent Kompany is doubtful.

Silva has overcome the knock which forced him to miss the midweek loss at Shakhtar Donetsk but Kompany will be assessed over an unspecified problem.

Makeshift left-back Fabian Delph has recovered from a sickness bug but defenders John Stones (hamstring) and Benjamin Mendy (knee) are still out.

Provisional squad: Ederson, Bravo, Walker, Danilo, Otamendi, Mangala, Kompany, Delph, Zinchenko, Toure, Gundogan, Fernandinho, D Silva, B Silva, De Bruyne, Sterling, Sane, Aguero, Jesus.

Man United

Paul Pogba starts a three-match ban as bitter rivals City arrive on Sunday.

The France international was sent off in last weekend's win at Arsenal and begins his domestic ban on the weekend, joining captain Michael Carrick and defender Eric Bailly on the sidelines.

Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Phil Jones and Nemanja Matic are available for the derby, while midfielder Marouane Fellaini will be assessed ahead of the game.

Provisional squad: De Gea, Romero, Pereira, Valencia, Darmian, Tuanzebe, Young, Shaw, Blind, Rojo, Smalling, Lindelof, Jones, Matic, Herrera, McTominay, Fellaini, Lingard, Mata, Mkhitaryan, Martial, Rashford, Lukaku, Ibrahimovic
