One of football's oldest rivalries writes another historic chapter this weekend, as Manchester United take on Manchester City at Old Trafford.

All eyes will be on Michael Carrick, as the interim manager is set for his second spell at Manchester United since his first spell in this role in 2021. His tenure in 2021 can't be judged by any metric, as the former Middlesbrough manager took charge of games against Villarreal in the Champions League and also guided the Red Devils to four points in six against Chelsea and Arsenal in the Premier League. Carrick will be tasked in guiding Manchester United to a European place this season, as his side sits three points from the top four in the Premier League.

Manchester City are in tremendous form, with no defeats in their last 13 matches after their victory away at St.James' Park. The away side are also on a magnificent run of league form with no defeats since the 2-1 loss away at Newcastle United back in November, having won six of their last nine league games, drawing the remaining three. For Pep Guardiola, his side will be looking to achieve another league double over the Red Devils, as the Citizens have not lost twice in the league to their arch rivals since the 2019/20 season.
