Is Manchester Utd vs Man City on TV? Live stream, team news and odds ahead of the Premier League clash

All eyes will be on Manchester on Wednesday night as Man United look to return to winning ways when they take on arch-rivals City. 

The clash, originally scheduled for Sunday, April 7, had to be rearranged due to City's involvement in the semi-finals of the Emirates FA Cup.

And back then, things looked a lot more rosy for Solskjaer's side, but now, United come into the game on the back of back-to-back defeats.

After exiting the Champions League at the hands of Barcelona last Tuesday, the Red Devils suffered a 4-0 drubbing at the hands of Everton at the weekend, leaving their top four hopes hanging by a thread.

While their local-rivals are in contrasting form. Needing a victory to move back to the top of the Premier League table, City come into the clash on the back of a hard-fought 1-0 win Spurs on Saturday afternoon.

And below is all big information needed ahead of the game.

Where is it and what time does the game kick-off?

The game takes place at Old Trafford on Wednesday night, with kick off at 8pm.

Is it on TV?

Yes, the game is live on TV.

The match will be broadcast on both Sky Sports Main Event and Sky Sports Premier League. Coverage starts at 7pm, with the game commencing an hour later.

Team News

United look set to welcome back Luke Shaw to their squad tomorrow night, with the left-back now available for selection after serving a two-game ban, but Phil Jones, who picked up an injury at the weekend, looks set to miss the game.

Long-term absentees Ander Herrera, Eric Bailly and Antonio Valencia also remained sidelined.

While for City, manager Pep Guardiola has confirmed that his side will be without Kevin De Bruyne for the game, after the former Chelsea man picked up a hamstring injury against Spurs.

But apart from the absence of De Bruyne, the current reigning Premier League Champions will have a full squad to choose from.

The 48-year-old has taken charge of three United matches so far this season -  with the latest one resulting in a 2-0 win for the Red Devils over Newcastle United back in January.

Marriner will be assisted by Scott Ledger and Simon Long - and this will be the first Manchester derby he has taken charge of since 2012.
