Manchester United

Manchester City entertain neighbours Manchester United at the Etihad Stadium. Rodri is out injured for the hosts, while Marcus Rashford is fit to start for ...

Silva hangs up a cross for Haaland, his header is blocked, De Gea thwarts De Bruyne from the rebound and Silva has his own strike blocked in the goalmouth. He has the luxury of being able to field a winning team once again with the minimum of fuss. Marcus Rashford netted twice in the Arsenal win before being withdrawn due to a hamstring injury. Rashford then takes his turn to give the ball straight back to City, Foden runs Malacia and both United full-backs are now on yellow cards. A combination of Eriksen (!) and McTominay certainly didn't and his near-post header was over the line before Malacia intervened. One of the things to recommend about this United display was they were keeping Haaland quiet. Varane, who left the pitch and returned to the eye of a hurricane can do nothing as Haaland slides in behind him to extend City's lead. De Bruyne storms through midfield threads it down the left for Haaland, who arrows a ball back across goal for Foden to finish. He's sort of in that right channel he likes but it's still a pass he has no right to make. United's threat on the counter-attack was supposed to be a factor today and they've been ripped apart by one. Gundogan sends a lively backpass to Ederson, who volleys the ball skywards. Silva slides a pass for Haaland, who thumps into the side-netting at the near post.

The season's first Manchester derby is set to take place at the Etihad Stadium on Sunday afternoon.

He has yet to find his feet at City following his move from Aston Villa and his spot in the England team is under threat. The pressure, however, is on Pep Guardiola. Interestingly, it was their first win over the Reds at the Etihad since 2018. In the last 10 league meetings, City narrowly held the edge with five wins compared with United’s four. The wholesale changes Ten Hag has made to the Manchester United backline are evidenced by the fact that none of the four who started in their last visit to the Etihad are expected to make it to the playing-XI this time.

In some areas we were still not good. We have to be more consistent. "But we must try to look there. "To win at home, score six goals, it's nice. "You can feel it all the time. It's what I love about the team."

Erling Haaland and Phil Foden scored hat-tricks in Manchester City's 6-3 win over United, who scored through Antony and a late double from Anthony Martial.

Finish No 16 of the campaign for the Norwegian soon ensued, his partner in goal-plundering again De Bruyne. The passage ended in a City corner, Varane went off for treatment, and De Bruyne swung the kick in. Antony summed up the state the visitors had to break out of when, after a rare foray, the wideman sprayed a ball to precisely no one. The Norwegian can also create, as he did for the passes that allowed Phil Foden to register his second and final finish as he too enjoyed a hat-trick. Grealish had already caused Diogo Dalot to be booked very early on and his penchant for dribbling engineered an opening from which City went close to a second. Not required was Bruno Fernandes gifting the ball to the champions needlessly, and how they struck.
