One of the most intriguing games the continent of Europe has to offer - the big Manchester derby between Manchester United and Manchester City - will kick off at 14:30 (Sport1).
Red Devils coach Ola Gunnar Solskjaer, who is with his back to the wall, has decided to start with Cristiano Ronaldo and Mason Greenwood on offense.
Bruno Fernandez opens with a link alongside Scott McTominy while Jadon Sancho, Marcus Rashford and Anthony Martial are waiting on the Norwegian coach's bench.
On the other hand, Kevin de Bruyne and Bernardo Silva came up with a link between the Blues.
Phil Foden and Gabriel Jesus started the attack with Ruben Diaz and John Stones in the center of defense.

City did not have long to prepare for the game, having played in the Champions League in a game that ended late on Wednesday.
United had another day to prepare after playing on Tuesday.
Pep does not like the game board, but towards the game showed composure.
"The schedule is the schedule. On Saturday at 12:30 noon we will be at Old Trafford," Guardiola said.
On the other hand, Ola Gunnar Solskjaer breathed a sigh of relief this week as after United's humiliation against Liverpool his side recovered with an impressive 0-3 win over Tottenham and came back twice from behind against Atalanta.
But the Norwegian also knows that a loss in a top-flight game will further hurt his status, and he will have to do so without the two excellent Frenchmen: the injured Rafael Varane and the dismissed Paul Pogba.
United have lost just once in the last five derbies (three wins, one draw).
City, who lost in the previous round to Crystal Palace and are 5 points away from Chelsea at the top, know that a stumble will complicate it very much for the future.
