"City and United are hoping to put painful seasons last year behind them in Sunday's early season Manchester derby. Who: Manchester City vs Manchester United What: English Premier League Where: Etihad Stadium, Manchester, United Kingdom When: Sunday, September 14 at 4:30pm (15:30 GMT) How to follow: We'll have all the build-up on Al Jazeera Sport from 1:30pm (12:30 GMT) in advance of our live text commentary stream."
"Manchester City and Manchester United have spent fortunes on some of the world's best attacking players, and yet, Sunday's derby will spotlight their goalkeepers. City secured Gianluigi Donnarumma from Paris Saint-Germain, and United landed Belgium international Senne Lammens on transfer deadline day to solve problems in their lineups. Even though United confirmed on Friday that Lammens would not be starting in goal, all the focus will be on those attempting to stop the goals rather than score them."
Manchester City and Manchester United meet in the early-season Manchester derby at the Etihad Stadium on Sunday, September 14. Both clubs invested heavily in attacking talent but recent transfers have shifted attention to goalkeepers. City signed Gianluigi Donnarumma from Paris Saint-Germain while United secured Belgium international Senne Lammens on transfer deadline day, though Lammens will not start. Pep Guardiola says he will adapt City’s approach to accommodate Donnarumma’s strengths and will not expect the same ball-playing distribution that Ederson provided. Ederson left for Fenerbahce after eight trophy-laden years, having revolutionised goalkeeper distribution in English football.
