Manchester United host Manchester City today
Hello and welcome to our live coverage of Manchester United vs Manchester City.
Both teams might have won in the Champions League in midweek but there is much more of a feel-good factor at City than there is at United in the opening weeks of the season.
United have taken just four points from their first three Premier League games while City boast a 100 per cent record heading into the first derby of the season. But you can throw the form book out of the window on derby day.
United won this fixture 2-0 in 2025/26 in Michael Carrick's first game at the helm and City will need to be at their best if they are to maintain their winning start to the season, with bragging rights on the line as well as three points.
We'll have all the updates you need, analysis and reaction from today's derby in the blog below.
