Team News
Manchester City
Guardiola confirmed at his pre-match press conference that Nathan Ake and Ruben Dias are both unavailable for the derby, with the latter facing between four and six weeks out with a hamstring injury.
Zack Steffen and Cole Palmer are also injury concerns for the Citizens but would never have started here, and Guardiola now has Jack Grealish and Gabriel Jesus raring to go after their injury woes.
Kyle Walker has struggled for consistent starts of late but it would be surprising to see him not return to the first XI here, which would see John Stones return to a central role as Dias recovers.
Manchester City possible starting lineup:
Ederson; Walker, Stones, Laporte, Cancelo; Silva, Rodri, De Bruyne; Mahrez, Foden, Sterling
Manchester United
As for Man United, Scott McTominay is expected to recover from illness in time to take his rightful place in the middle of the park, and Edinson Cavani could also be back from his groin problem, but Rangnick has admitted "question marks" over a couple of unnamed players.
Rangnick needs to be careful with Cristiano Ronaldo's 37-year-old legs, but reports have claimed that the five-time Ballon d'Or winner will start at the Etihad nonetheless, with Marcus Rashford on standby.
Fans will expect to see Nemanja Matic make way for Jadon Sancho after a toothless attacking performance against Watford, and Rangnick also has a big call to make over Harry Maguire after dropping the skipper last week.
Victor Lindelof and Raphael Varane did not do much wrong against the Hornets, so it would not be a complete surprise to see Maguire benched once again amid reports of unrest behind-the-scenes over his consistent game time.
Manchester United possible starting lineup:
De Gea; Wan-Bissaka, Lindelof, Varane, Telles; Pogba, McTominay; Elanga, Fernandes, Sancho; Ronaldo
Prediction: Manchester City 2-1 Manchester United
