Another vital Manchester derby is set to kick off with big implications on the league table. City currently sit in 4th on 51 points while United are in 6th on 47. Both teams have been searching for improved form for quite some time now and will be looking to spark the run-in today. The last derby earlier this season was a drab 0-0 affair but we can expect different things today.

A few changes for City then in light of the new injuries. Demichelis and Mangala start at CB while Fernando is dropped for Raheem Sterling. The bench is strong but the question is whether Demichelis can cope with a full 90 given his recent play. We'll be anxious to see how that plays out.
