Manchester City vs Manchester United: Paul Pogba misses derby, Lukaku starts from bench

Share This


Manchester City host their rivals United in the derby on Sunday at the Etihad stadium. Jose Mourinho has called up Fellaini to support in the midfield  with Paul Pogba ruled out.

Ilkay Gundogan returned to action after a two-month lay-off against Shakhtar in the midweek, though Kevin De Bruyne remains sidelined with a long-term injury.

Eliaquim Mangala has also been ruled out due to injury, while Claudio Bravo is also another injury absentee.


Man City XI: Ederson; Walke, Stones, Laporte, Mendy; D. Silva, Fernandinho, B. Silva; Sterling, Aguero, Mahrez.

Paul Pogba - who scored a memorable double in the same fixture last season - misses out having picked up a knock in the Red Devils' win over Juventus.

Romelu Lukaku returns to the matchday squad following a hamstring injury but is only named among the substitutes, where he is joined by Alexis Sanchez and Juan Mata.

Man Utd XI: De Gea; Young, Lindelof, Smalling, Shaw; Fellaini, Matic, Herrera; Martial, Rashford, Lingard.
