Man City vs Manchester United F.C. Stats Ahead Of Sunday’s 4.30pm Clash<\/h2>\n

This weekend’s Manchester Derby will see two teams that have struggled for form in the opening months of the season.<\/p>\n

Man City are in their worst run of form since Pep Guardiola joined the club<\/a> in 2016. Manchester Unite<\/a>d have lost their last two Premier League games under new boss Ruben Amorim, after a tough start under former manager Erik ten Hag.<\/p>\n

A defeat for Man City<\/a> could leave Guardiola’s side 11 points off Liverpool if the Reds were to beat Fulham at Anfield<\/a>. Manchester United are already four points off the top-half of the table and a loss could leave them with just 19 points after 16 games.<\/p>\n
