United have made a good start but almost concede the opener again.

Raheem Sterling exchanges passes with Kevin de Bruyne before jinking past Aaron Wan-Bissaka into the box.

The England international feigns and then smacks a shot from eight yards out which is arrowing into the net, but Harry Maguire puts his sizable frame in the way to make an excellent block.

But then in a flash Bruno Fernandes is behind.

It is a great pick out from Victor Lindelof but the Portuguese cannot wrap his foot around it and the ball trickles through to Ederson.

It's become rather disjointed since Fred needed some attention.

All very scrappy, neither side able to bring the ball down.

Big volume from the Manchester United backroom staff as they quickly close down Manchester City. City have been doing the same to United with Harry Maguire having to show composure in his own penalty area on a couple of occasions already.

Nemanja Matic is warming up but Fred has asked for five more minutes.

The play is stopped as the physio comes on to have a look at Fred, he's pulled his t-shirt up and giving the Brazilian's ribs a squeeze.

Fred might be coming off here...

Almost the opener!

Luke Shaw whips in the set piece which Victor Lindelof flicks on, it reaches Scott McTominay at the back post but the Scot cannot stretch enough and the ball drifts out of play.

Paul Pogba will a delightful ball, clipped over the top to pick out the run of Bruno Fernandes, but the United midfielder's cross is cut out for a corner.,

United midfielder Fred is still not functioning at 100% after that knock from Kevin de Bruyne earlier.

He looks in a bit of trouble and is trying to stretch it off.

Fernandinho is making his 230th Premier League appearance, only Lucas Leiva (247) and Willian (244) have made more among Brazilians in the competition.

This was a sniff for Raheem Sterling, latching onto Kevin de Bruyne through ball but the England international cannot take it in his path.

Remember, Sterling has never scored in 16 Premier League appearances against Manchester United.

This is the first one from City midfielder Fernandinho, late in on Bruno Fernandes from behind.

Referee Chris Kavanagh wants a word with opposition captain.

This looks a painful one for United midfielder Fred, it looks a dead leg after a bump from Kevin de Bruyne.

The Brazilian gets back to his feet gingerly.

United looking confident in possession though, popping the ball around nicely.

A fast start is what Ole Gunnar Solskjaer asked for before kick-off.

They've not conceded yet.

Sharp start from City.

Kevin de Bruyne is straight into the action and lofts a ball into the box which United goalkeeper David de Gea gathers without any problems.

It’s a shame that such a big game will be without fans but the game itself is still going to be a top quality game with two incredible sides so it’s going to be a joy to watch.

It’s a derby so anything goes. The fact that United lost in midweek, you could say that they’re struggling but they’re five points off top with a game in hand so they are still confident and they know it’s the type of game where bragging rights are important. City will do their best to dominate but Manchester United are Manchester United, you can’t escape that.
