- Jonny Evans is doubtful for this game for Manchester United and Luke Shaw will miss this game due to injury.
Player(s) to watch:
- Erling Haaland is the player to watch out for Man City in this game. His ability to score goals at an astonishing rate is perhaps his most defining trait. His exceptional finishing, both with his feet and head, combined with an almost predatory instinct inside the box, makes him one of the deadliest strikers in modern football.
- Ramsus Hojlund is the player to watch out for United in this game. His height is advantageous for a striker, giving him an edge in aerial duels, though his aerial duel success rate has been noted as needing improvement.
