Manchester City and their next door neighbours will clash for the first time in the 2022-23 Premier League season. At the Etihad, second-placed Manchester.
Lisandro Martinez and Raphael Varane will stand in the last line of defence for Manchester United against Manchester City. Up ahead in midfield, Casemiro will likely be given a start, alongside Christian Eriksen, who has been terrific since joining Manchester United. For Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City, they will be without their defender, John Stones, who has been ruled out for this game. At the Etihad, second-placed Manchester City will welcome a resurgent Manchester United in a tricky game on Sunday. Pundits and fans alike are still wondering how the shortest central defender in the league, Lisandro Martinez would be able to keep the Norwalegian quiet today and this means that the United defender will have a tough time dealing with the giant striker who will be desperately in search of his first derby goal. Manchester City and their next door neighbours will clash for the first time in the 2022-23 Premier League season.

Manchester City vs Manchester United live: Erling Haaland is set for his Manchester derby debut when the champs host the rapidly improving Red Devils.
While picking up the four straight victories, the Dutchman has also settled on a midfield setup with Scott McTominay and Christian Eriksen operating in (effectively) a double pivot with Bruno Fernandes the most advanced of the three. Rodri’s absence for Man City threatened an opening for United but the midfield duo of Scott McTominay and Christian Eriksen were left without a rudder by Erik ten Hag (See what we learned, above). With space in behind (and the proper service from deep), Ten Hag might just have his first winning formula (albeit quite unlike him). That’s not to say it’s been easy as Manchester City go through a tactical shift of their own to better appeal to the big Norwegian’s poaching abilities. Each of Jadon Sancho, Marcus Rashford and Fernandes have scored twice during the winning run, with new boy Antony also getting in on the fun on his debut. To win at home and score six goals here, it’s nice. Erling and I have built a connection, just finding each other.” It did not lose a meaningful European match nor trail after a leg of the knockout rounds. Eriksen’s defensive skills weren’t up for the task and left McTominay running around like a maniac. Erling Haaland is on fire, and every single Premier League defense should be terrified. Haaland now has 14 goals through eight Premier League games, 18 off the league record for a 38-game season set by Mohamed Salah in 2017-18. Man Utd has played one fewer match.

He finished with 15 strikeouts in a complete-game effort and the Dodgers went on to sweep the Yankees. The Dodgers became the first team in MLB history with four players to hit at least 30 homers in the same season. The Padres want to celebrate with a win on Sunday -- and celebrate with their fans. It put them in the postseason for the first time since making it as a Wild Card in 1996. The Padres also have a two-game edge on the Philadelphia Phillies in the battle for the No. 2 marked 80 years to the day from when he first became a self-proclaimed “rabid Giants fan.” Scully’s affinity for baseball and the then-New York Giants began when he was walking home as a young child and saw the box score of the New York Yankees shellacking the Giants, 18-4, at Polo Grounds in Game 2 of the World Series. Wilson, 53, has an extensive resume as a college coach, but came to Colorado along with Dorrell in 2020 after four seasons as an assistant coach with the Philadelphia Eagles and Arizona Cardinals. That plan worked for a while, as the Commanders mined a field-position advantage to keep Dallas out of the end zone most of the first half. With the team still looking to contend in 2023, the team might look for a big name to take the reins going forward. The Padres (87-71) have a three-game edge on the Brewers with four games to play. Dorrell led the Buffaloes to a 4-2 record and an Alamo Bowl berth in his first season during the pandemic-shortened 2020 year but failed to improve the program over the past two seasons. "I want to thank Karl for his hard work in leading our program since 2020," George said in a statement released by the University.
It is the Manchester derby showdown on Sunday, as Manchester United make the small trip to the Etihad Stadium to face Manchester City.
The Dane’s creativity and link up with Bruno Fernandes will be crucial in unlocking the rigid City backline at the weekend. Ten Hag will be torn between Marcus Rashford and Anthony Martial should the duo pass the fitness test. The double-pivot of Christian Eriksen and Scott McTominay has blossomed in recent games, giving the Red Devils some stability in midfield. Ten Hag has finally settled on a stable back four and is unlikely to make alterations when picking his side on Sunday. They lie fifth in the table, five points behind Man City but with a game in hand. Martial sustained an Achilles injury against Liverpool last month and hasn’t played since while Rashford suffered a muscle injury in Man United’s 3-1 win over Arsenal before the international break.
