Anthony Martial, Marouane Fellaini and Claudio Bravo start in Manchester derby
Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho has put his faith in Anthony Martial for the derby clash with Manchester City at the Etihad.
The French winger, largely out of favour this season, starts alongside Henrikh Mkhitaryan and Marcus Rashford in attack for the visitors. Paul Pogba’s absence means United line-up with a three-man midfield of Michael Carrick, Ander Herrera and Marouane Fellaini.
Claudio Bravo continues in goal for City, with Vincent Kompany again captaining the side. Raheem Sterling, Kevin De Bruyne and Leroy Sane are tasked with feeding Sergio Aguero.
Manchester City: Bravo, Zabaleta, Kompany, Otamendi, Kolarov, Fernandinho, Yaya Toure, Sterling, De Bruyne, Sane, Aguero… Subs: Caballero, Sagna, Fernando, Navas, Clichy, Gabriel Jesus, A. Garcia.
Manchester United: De Gea, Valencia, Bailly, Blind, Darmian, Fellaini, Herrera, Carrick, Mkhitaryan, Martial, Rashford… Subs: Romero, Shaw, Fosu-Mensah, Tuanzebe, Young, Lingard, Rooney.
