Manchester United
30' GOOOOOAAAAALLLL!!!!! UNITED 1-0 CITY!!! Fernandes chips a free-kick over City's wall and Martial, having got away from a couple of players, volleys past Ederson at the City keeper's near post. Ederson will wonder exactly how that one squirmed through his grasp.

29' Gundogan goes right through Fernandes as United win another free-kick. City's players are furious with the decision and Fernandinho is cautioned for protesting.
29' CHANCE! Martial gets the better of Fernandinho down the left-hand side and carries the ball into the box. He sets himself to pick out the far corner with his curler, but in the end he shoots pretty much straight at Ederson.

22' City are starting to get the ball in some dangerous positions now, with Zinchenko being given plenty of freedom in the middle of the park. He drifts to the left and his cross is blocked by Maguire.
21' The away side has won six of the last seven matches between Manchester United and Manchester City in all competitions, with the exception a 3-1 home win for City in November 2018.
19' That is now one half-decent chance each for both sides, with Sterling and James testing De Gea and Ederson respectively. United have had just 30 per cent of the ball so far.
17' SHOT! United turn over possession 10 yards inside the opposition half and within seconds Fernandes plays in James. The angle is against the young winger and his shot is easily kept out by Ederson.
16' Foden tries to thread the ball through for Aguero but the pass is intercepted on the edge of the box. United are playing like the away side, sitting back and focusing on the counter.
14' Maguire fails to get any real distance on his headed clearance but Aguero, played in by Sterling, is unable to make him pay as Matic produces a good challenge in the box.
13' That Sterling shot came as a result of some poor play from Shaw near the halfway line. There are signs that the visitors are just starting to find their rhythm.

11' SAVE! Foden spreads the ball to Sterling, who controls it and attempts to curl one into the bottom-right corner. It is at a nice height for De Gea to push aside.
10' It has been a cagey start to the Manchester derby, to say the least. James gets involved high up on the left for the first time today, but once again United's attack fizzles out.
9' Gundogan swings a corner towards the six-yard box and it is a United head that gets to it first. The ball comes back into the middle, where Williams is well positioned to cut out the cross before Aguero can pounce.
8' Fred produces a good challenge to halt a City attack. Neither team have been able to get on the ball in the final third in the opening eight minutes.
6' City are now starting to settle into the game as they patiently knock the ball around. Gundogan sloppily gives away possession, but United are unable to capitalise.

4' A roar goes around Old Trafford as Martial is given something to chase down, but Cancelo beats him to the loose ball.
3' Foden is starting wide on the right for City, with Sterling on the opposite side and Aguero through the middle. Guardiola's men have not seen a great deal of the ball so far.
2' The home side are pressing their opponents high in the opening exchanges. Martial tries to carry the ball down the left-hand side but his run is halted.
1' KICK-OFF! United, who have already beaten City twice in all competitions this season, get us up and running at Old Trafford.
