Man Utd vs Man City Starting XI for EPL derby confirmed

Man Utd vs Man City Starting XI for EPL derby confirmed – Manchester United have made three changes from the side who scraped past FC Copenhagen in midweek with the big news coming at centre-back.

Raphael Varane is only fit enough for the bench despite playing in the Champions League win, so Jonny Evans partners Harry Maguire at centre-half this afternoon.

The other changes see Antony and Sergi Reguilon drop to the bench for Christian Eriksen and Victor Lindelof, who is set to play at right-back. Alejandro Garnacho is also on the bench despite his social media incident with starting goalkeeper Andre Onana this week.
