Here is how we predict Manchester United and Manchester City will line up this weekend:

To be played on Saturday 10th September 2016 at 11:30. Venue: Old Trafford, Manchester

Odds: Man Utd 13/10, Draw 23/10, Man City 21/10

Manchester United’s players return after the international break to the biggest game of their season so far, as fierce rivals Manchester City head to Old Trafford.

It will be the first match between United boss Jose Mourinho and City manager Pep Guardiola since the two took charge of their new clubs, and it is sure to be a fascinating encounter.

Both sides currently have a 100 per cent record so something has to give on Saturday lunch-time, with United’s home advantage potentially making the difference.

In early team news, United have minor doubts regarding Marouane Fellaini, Henrikh Mkhitaryan and Luke Shaw but all are rated at 75 per cent to recover.

City are without the suspended Sergio Aguero, while Bacary Sagna, Vincent Kompany, Ilkay Gundogan and Leroy Sane are all unavailable.

Given the players on show this should be a superb match that really could go either way, and both managers will be desperate to get some early bragging rights as well as the three points.
