A huge Manchester derby is the headline act of the Premier League weekend as Manchester United host Man City at Old Trafford. For the hosts, it is a chance to build some momentum after a stuttering start to the season, and for the visitors a chance for new manager Enzo Maresca lay down a key marker early on in his tenure with Pep Guardiola’s shadow looming large.
For Michael Carrick's side, it has been an underwhelming start to the season with just four points won from their opening three games - and at least two goals conceded in every game to match an unwanted 50-year record. But the manager has already seen off their cross-city rivals while at the helm - a 2-0 win at Old Trafford in January - so hope of another derby wins remains.
Maresca is looking to continue his perfect start to life at the Etihad with a fourth straight win, topped off by matching the likes of Sven-Goran Eriksson and Pep Guardiola by winning his first Manchester derby. Nico O’Reilly is pushing to return from injury. Follow the game LIVE below with our dedicated match blog, featuring expert insight and analysis.

Good afternoon and welcome to the London Standard’s LIVE coverage of the Manchester derby between Man Utd and Man City.
Michael Carrick saw off Pep Guardiola at Old Trafford back in January as part of a dream start to life as interim manager, but faces Enzo Maresca this afternoon amid a stuttering start to his permanent role.
Maresca has four wins from four across all competition since replacing Guardiola, but this is his most important test yet.
