Neither club has been in the best of form of late, but both will have ambitions of catching Premier League pace-setters Chelsea and improve their fortunes on the pitch.

City have made the surprise inclusion of Stevan Jovetic upfront alongside the in-form Sergio Aguero, with Edin Dzeko only on the bench. Meanwhile, James Milner is preferred in the starting eleven to Samir Nasri, who is also among the substitutes.

Meanwhile, Louis van Gaal has made some changes to his United team, with Wayne Rooney returning from suspension to go straight back into the starting lineup, while youngster Adnan Januzaj is picked over Juan Mata, who is on the bench with the returning Michael Carrick.
