MANCHESTER United hope to add a positive highlight to their poor season as they host noisy neighbours City in the Manchester Derby.City and United are both powerhouses of the Premier League, but the two sides have endured poor seasons compared to their high standards.United are lingering down in 13th place in the Premier League, with Ruben Amorim unable to steady the sinking ship at Old Trafford.City are down in fifth, but after winning four Premier League titles in a row, Pep Guardiola will be disappointed with his side’s lacklustre performance this season.TV channel: Sky Sports Main Event/Sky Sports Premier LeagueLive stream: NOW TVMan Utd XI: Onana; Yoro, Maguire, Mazraoui; Dalot, Ugarte, Casemiro, Dorgu; Garnacho, Fernandes; HojlundMan City XI: Ederson; Nunes, Dias, Gvardiol, O’Reilly; Kovacic, Gundogan; Silva, De Bruyne, Foden; MarmoushCASINO SPECIAL – BEST CASINO BONUSES FROM £10 DEPOSITSFollow ALL the action from Old Trafford below…Man Utd 0-0 Man City35.
