Man United vs Man City Head-to-Head Record: Stats, History & Latest Results

The latest chapter of the Manchester derby will unfold at Old Trafford on Sunday, as Manchester United welcome Manchester City in their first meeting since Kevin De Bruyne announced his departure in the middle of the season. Pep Guardiola’s men head into the clash buoyed by a 2-0 midweek victory over Leicester City.

Meanwhile, Man United suffered their 13th league loss, falling to Nottingham Forest. With Champions League spots still up for grabs, both sides are desperate for points. City briefly re-entered the top four before Chelsea’s win bumped them back to fifth. Although, England’s strong UEFA coefficient should still secure qualification.
