Man United beat rivals City THREE times last term by playing on the counter and with less than 32% possession! With Solskjaer in desperate need of a result to save his skin, will he opt for the same tactic or something different in TODAY's crunch clash?

A pivotal week for Manchester United has already been dealt a hammer blow following their catastrophic Champions League exit on Tuesday night.

The Red Devils bowed out of the competition at the group stages with a 3-2 defeat at RB Leipzig. All they had to do was avoid defeat but that that looked unlikely when they trailed 3-0 after 69 minutes.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side have no time to feel sorry for themselves now as they face the daunting prospect of hosting Manchester City on Saturday in the Premier League.
