The latest edition of the Manchester derby features a pair of clubs, each facing a fight to maintain their current positions in the standings.
Manchester City leads the Premier League by six points, but second-place Liverpool holds a game in hand and is in the best form of any team in England. Meanwhile, Manchester United sits in fourth place but faces a tough challenge in keeping West Ham and Arsenal at bay, with all three clubs vying for the final Champions League spot on offer to Premier League sides.
Manchester's blue and red sides face their own individual battles, which this weekend dovetails into a crucial match against one another.
As the home side and the league leader, City will be expected to set the tone and carry the play. However, United would love nothing more than to throw a big wrench into its archrival's title aspirations while also boosting its own hopes of European play and, as such, will be hugely motivated to pull off an upset.
With neither team at their best over the past month, the opportunity is there to use Sunday's derby match as the catalyst for a successful remaining two months of the season.
