MANCHESTER CITY VS MANCHESTER UNITED preview.

The 170th Manchester derby is kicking off on Sunday right at the Etihad Stadium at 2:05pm,the City neighbours will be the visitors for their first meeting this season and the battle is going to be between the in form players of both teams,Anthony Martial and Kevin De Bruyne.With both of them scoring in the champions league matches although Manchester United had a draw while City won at the last minute by their hero and danger man De bruyne, both of them will be expected to save their teams on Sunday.

                 Juan Mata is still a doubt for the game as he was left on the bench during Champions league while the same goes for the City stopper and captain Vincent Kompany but he is mostly to regain his position for the derby.Man city has an home advance and will be playing in front of their own fans,winning against Sevilla will make them to play with high morale as United defence of Smalling,Darmian,Rojo and Jones will be put to test by the ever attacking City strikers Raheem Sterling,De bruyne,Jesus Navas and Bony while on the other side,Martial,Depay,Rooney and Mata will also cause trouble with the City defence.

                   The last time a record signing of Man city,Sergio Aguero scored against a Spanish side to seal a Champions league win and also played Manchester United next up was in 2011 when City won 6-1 at the Old Tradfford,it appears like something like that is knocking again as Kevin De bruyne,the latest record signing also netted a winner against Sevilla and then Manchester United is the next opponent again but am sure Man Utd won't want that to happen this time again on Sunday.

             EXPECTED LINE UP
 
Man Utd: De Gea, Darmian, Jones, Smalling, Rojo, Schneiderlin, Schweinsteiger, Mata, Herrera, Martial, Rooney
Man City: Hart, Zabaleta, Otamendi, Mangala, Sagna, Touré, Fernandinho, Jesús Navas, Sterling, De Bruyne, Bony
