Manchester United vs Manchester City Confirmed Lineups: Mourinho starts both Rashford and Martial

Manchester United fans have gotten what they wished for as Jose Mourinho has started both Marcus Rashford and Anthony Martial against Manchester City.

The Manchester derby is highly influential for both the sides with respect to the top four race. And Mourinho has seen his side depleted by the absence of Paul Pogba, who has succumbed to an injury and is unavailable for the derby.

The Portuguese, though, has chosen to start both Rashford and Martial, who are likely to be the faces of a speedy Manchester United attack, accompanied by Henrikh Mkhitaryan. Ander Herrera will be tasked to do a similar job on Kevin De Bruyne as he did on Eden Hazard earlier.

For Manchester City, Sergio Aguero starts up front while Raheem Sterling and Leroy Sane are the wing options for Guardiola, who has chosen to go with a natural back four after several games of tinkering with the defence.
