Manchester United will be hoping to put a dent in Manchester City's title hopes when the pair face off in a blockbuster clash at Old Trafford.

Jose Mourinho's troops are currently eight points behind the league leaders and should they lose to their rivals the title race could be over by Christmas.

United come into the clash following an impressive away win over Arsenal and a 2-1 win Champions League victory over CSKA Moscow.

City, however, will be looking top bounce back from their first defeat of the season having lost to Shakhtar Donetsk in the Champions League on Wednesday.

But with the Red Devils unbeaten in a record 40 matches at Old Trafford under Mourinho, this will be no easy task for Kevin De Bruyne and co.
