Manchester City and Manchester United will do battle in a derby clash in round 12 of the Premier League, set for the Etihad Stadium on Sunday, 11 November 2018, kick-off at 18h30 CAT.

 

City come into the game on the back of a 6-1 destruction of Southampton in their last league outing, featuring an own goal and strikes from Sergio Aguero, David Silva, Raheem Sterling (two) and Leroy Sane.

The result put Pep Guardiola’s men at the top of the log on 29 points from 11 matches – two points clear of nearest chasers Chelsea (second) and Liverpool (third).

 

United’s last outing was a 2-1 win over Bournemouth this past weekend. Jose Mourinho admitted after the game that his team should have been several goals behind at half time, such was their disorganisation at the back, but in the end they claimed all three points thanks to a last-gasp goal from Marcus Rashford.

City will not only be looking to extend the nine-point gap that currently exists between the teams on the log, but also avenge the surprise 3-2 loss they suffered at the hands of United in the back end of last season: the Red Devils came from two goals down to claim a victory which temporarily put on hold the Citizens’ title celebrations.
