Tyson Fury issues Manchester United rallying cry ahead of Manchester derby

Tyson Fury will be in attendance on Saturday afternoon as Manchester United play Manchester City at Old Trafford.

Fury was born in Wythenshawe, Manchester and he's also been a life-long dedicated United supporter.

The 33-year-old boxing hero retained his WBC heavyweight title in Las Vegas last month after an enthralling contest against American Deontay Wilder and he's previously admitted that it's his 'dream' to one day fight in front of his home crowd at Old Trafford.

It's the Manchester derby on Saturday and Fury has shared a video of himself travelling on the way to the match.

"Come on the Reds," Fury shouted in his video.

"We're off to the derby, come on the Reds."

United have struggled for form this season, however, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has a strong record against Pep Guardiola.

Solskjaer has won four of his eight meetings with Guardiola, which is the best win rate of any manager to face him at least five times.
