How to watch Man City vs Manchester United - TV channel, live stream and early team news

Manchester City and Manchester United will be going in search of the local bragging rights when they meet at the Etihad Stadium for the latest chapter of the Manchester derby on Sunday afternoon.

City, who beat United 2-0 at Old Trafford back in November, will be looking to strengthen their grip at the top of the Premier League table, whilst the Reds will be aiming to bolster their top-four ambitions. United will also be going in search of their fourth successive win on City territory, following recent successes in 2019, 2020 and 2021.

City outclassed United at Old Trafford earlier this season, securing a 2-0 win thanks to an own-goal from Eric Bailly and a close-range finish from Bernardo Silva. They barely had to get out of first gear on that occasion and will be hoping for a similar outcome this time around.

However, with the business end of the season fast approaching for both clubs, the game will almost certainly be played at a different pace and have a different feeling to it. With that said, it promises to be a must-see content and here is everything that you need to know ahead of the latest instalment of this historic rivalry.

The contest will be screened live by Sky Sports on both their Main Event and Premier League channels. Being part of Sky's Super Sunday coverage, the build-up to the City-United clash officially begins at 4pm on both channels, ahead of kick-off at 4:30pm, following the conclusion of Watford vs Arsenal.

However, the overall programme starts at 1pm on Sky Sports Premier League, with discussion about the derby likely to take place ahead of Arsenal's visit to Vicarage Road getting under way.
