Match Facts
Manchester United won this exact fixture last season 2-0 but haven’t beaten rivals Manchester City twice in a row at home in the Premier League since a run of three under Alex Ferguson from 2008-09 to 2010-11.
Manchester City have won just one of their last four Premier League games against Manchester United (D1 L2), this after winning five of their six beforehand (L1).
Manchester United have won nine of their 10 Premier League home games since Michael Carrick took charge in January (L1), scoring at least twice in each victory. They’ve won their last three despite conceding twice each time, last conceding 2+ goals in four straight home league games in January 1972.
Manchester City are looking to win each of their opening four games to a Premier League campaign for the seventh time, which would be the outright most of any side (Chelsea also 6). They’ve gone on to win the league on just two of the previous six occasions they’ve won their first four in the competition (2011-12 and 2023-24).
Manchester United have conceded twice in all three of their Premier League games this season. Only in 1926-27 (first 5), 1930-31 (12) and 1969-70 (4) have they shipped 2+ goals in each of their first four in a league campaign.
Man Utd and Man City (19 each) had the most shots on target across the opening three Premier League matchdays this season, while the Red Devils had the most shots overall (68) and accumulated the second highest xG (7.3).
Luke Shaw could make his 300th Premier League appearance in this match. He’s started each of Man Utd’s last 41 Premier League games, with Harry Maguire the last outfielder to start more consecutively for the club (72 between August 2019 and May 2021).
After overseeing a 2-0 win in January last season, Michael Carrick could become only the third Manchester United manager to win both of his first two league games against Manchester City, after AH Albut in 1895 and John Bentley in 1913.
Manchester City’s Elliot Anderson has completed more passes while under high pressure than any other player in the Premier League this season (122), while Man Utd’s Youri Tielemans ranks second in this regard (114).
Manchester City striker Erling Haaland has scored eight goals in seven Premier League appearances against Manchester United, although just two of those have come at Old Trafford. Only Mo Salah (13) and Alan Shearer (10) have scored more times against the Red Devils in the competition.
