Ruben Amorim press conference LIVE Manchester United updates and early team news vs Man City
Ruben Amorim will take questions at his pre-match press conference this afternoon.
Manchester United are set to return from the international break against Manchester City at the Etihad.
United pulled off a dramatic 2-1 comeback victory at the Etihad thanks to Amad's heroics last December, and Amorim will be hoping for a similar result when his side visit the Etihad on Sunday.
The pressure has increased on Amorim following a disappointing start to the new campaign, but the 40-year-old oversaw an important 3-2 win against Burnley before the break.
Matheus Cunha and Mason Mount were forced off with injuries against Burnley and Diogo Dalot withdrew from international duty with Portugal due to a small muscle injury.
Amorim will provide an update on the team news and look ahead to the Manchester derby.

The Glazer family approved Antony's departure from Manchester United on deadline day.
Antony enjoyed a successful loan at Real Betis in the second half of last season and he held out for a permanent move to Seville throughout the summer transfer window, but negotiations went down to the wire.
The winger travelled to Spain on a private jet alongside his agent, Junior Pedroso, to complete a move to Betis with hours of the transfer window remaining. United received a fixed fee of €22million (£19m), with a potential €3m (£2.6m) in add-ons, and included a 50 per cent sell-on clause in the deal.
Speaking to ABC Sevilla, Real Betis' CEO provided an insight into the negotiations. Ramon Alarcon admitted it was a difficult transfer to get over the line and revealed Betis were forced to wait for the Glazer family to sign off the deal.
