Manchester United vs Man City TV channel, live stream and how to watch derby fixture

Manchester City and Manchester United will go head-to-head in the second Manchester derby of the season when they meet at the Etihad Stadium on Sunday afternoon.

Both sides will head into the all-Manchester clash on the back of midweek FA Cup triumphs. On Tuesday night, City hammered Luton Town 6-2 at Kenilworth Road before United squeezed past Nottingham Forest 24 hours later, winning 1-0 at the City Ground.

This weekend, however, it is once again all about the bread and butter of the Premier League and securing the local bragging rights. City won the reverse fixture at Old Trafford in October, winning 3-0, and will be looking to complete a second league double over their rivals in three seasons.

For City, it will count as another opportunity to add three points to their tally in pursuit of retaining their crown, whereas for United they will be targeting a much-needed three points to keep their fading Champions League dream alive. Erik ten Hag's side are currently eight points shy of the top four.
