Man United v Man City TV channel, kick-off time and how to watch Premier League derby

Manchester United and Manchester City will clash in the first Manchester derby of the Premier League season on Sunday, September 13th at 4:30pm BST. This fixture marks the debut of Michael Carrick as caretaker manager for Manchester United, following his successful tenure in January. Enzo Maresca replaces Neil Ferguson as Manchester City manager for this encounter.

Carrick and Maresca will aim to shape their respective teams towards a title challenge, but United currently trails City by four points from their first three matches. Enzo Maresca, an Italian manager, has started well at the Etihad, securing three league wins so far. The derby will be broadcast on Sky Sports Main Event and Premier League.

In terms of team news, Michael Carrick is unsure whether left back Luke Shaw will be fit for the match, with Patrick Dorgu deputizing for the England international. Benjamin Sesko has impressed in his two-game stint for United, potentially earning a starting spot. Nico O’Reilly is available for Manchester City after recovering from an injury suffered during the warm-up before their previous game against Coventry.

Enzo Fernandez and Ayyoub Bouaddi have integrated seamlessly into City's lineup, but there is only one available slot alongside Elliott Anderson. Jeremy Doku remains out injured. Matheus Nunes, who returned from injury midweek, could feature for City. The likely starting lineups for both teams are as follows: Manchester United XI: Lammens; Dalot, Maguire, Martinez, Dorgu; Mainoo, Tielemans; Mbeumo, Fernandes, Cunha; Sesko; City XI: Donnarumma; Nunes, Dias, Gvardiol, O’Reilly; Anderson, Fernandez; Semenyo, Cherki, Ndiaye; Haaland.
