Manchester United are looking to continue piling the pressure onto Manchester City in the U18 Premier League.
After Monday’s 3-1 win against Middlesborough, the U18 Premier League title race is wide open once again.
Position Clubs Games Points
1 Manchester United 17 44
2 Manchester City 16 43
Adam Lawrence’s reds sit top of the pile with 44 points from 17 games, however, City are just one point adrift with a game in hand, meaning Manchester United will have to avoid dropping points going forward.
The good news for United is the squad available to face Derby should be a lot stronger with no U21 football this week.

Third-placed Derby County are the best of the rest in the league, but miles behind the two Manchester clubs so this is a must-win for Lawrence, hopefully, it comes with a statement performance.
Amir Ibragimov and Gabriele Biancheri are expected to be involved for United, while there could very easily be a U18 step-up for ulta-talented Cristiano Ronaldo heir, JJ Gabriel, any week now.
