Manchester United will host crosstown rivals Manchester City in a mouthwatering derby in the Premier League on Sunday, March 8 at Old Trafford.
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side know that they must register victory if they want to keep their hopes of qualifying for Europe alive.
Manchester City will be aware that the title is now unreachable as they remain 25 points adrift of league leaders Liverpool. They will be desperate, however, to defeat their local rivals after the Red Devils ran out 2-1 winners in the same fixture earlier in the season at the Etihad.
Pep Guardiola's team did knock Man Utd out of the Carabao Cup in the semi-finals, so both sides will be hunting for revenge.
