A couple of players have spoken to Sky this morning. Here are some highlights:

Aleksandar Kolarov:

We’ve had a difficult week and I think it’s an excellent game to try to win and start fighting for the title. Obviously without David it’ll be difficult, because he’s a massive player with massive importance for us, but I think we have a lot of good players and in the best way they can replace him. We have to show we are playing

Chris Smalling:

It’s a game that’s going to be 100mph from the first whistle and we have to try to take command as soon as we can. There’s a lot of confidence, we’ve trained well all week and we need to make sure we get that win, because we need it.

In terms of form, this is seventh v eighth. A Manchester City win today would propel them into the top four of this particular table, and could push United into the bottom half in the process.

Here’s the Press Association’s take on the teams:

Wayne Rooney returned from suspension to lead United in Sunday’s Manchester derby at the Etihad Stadium. Adnan Januzaj and Marouane Fellaini retained their places after impressing against Chelsea, but there was a change at right-back, where Antonio Valencia replaced the injured Rafael. Juan Mata had to settle for a place on the bench for United while Manchester City opted to start with Stevan Jovetic up front instead of Edin Dzeko. Eliaquim Mangala was dropped for Martin Demichelis, who started alongside skipper Vincent Kompany at centre-back.

Sky show David Silva at the ground, on crutches. There’s enough talent in the City squad for them to win this game despite his absence, but us neutrals will miss him.
