Manchester United vs Manchester City

This was just the third Manchester derby to finish 0-0 since the start of 2016-17 across all competitions, previously doing so in April 2017 and December 2020, both in the Premier League.

Since Rúben Amorim’s first game in charge of Manchester United, only Leicester City (12) have failed to score in more Premier League games than the Red Devils (8).

Manchester City have kept a clean sheet in successive Premier League games for the first time since May 2024, though they’ve failed to score in consecutive away matches in the competition for the first time since December 2020.

Manchester United are looking to complete just their first Premier League double over Manchester City since 2019-20, following their 2-1 win at the Etihad Stadium in December.

Manchester City have won more Premier League away games against Manchester United than any other side (9). Five of their nine wins have come under Pep Guardiola, the most of any visiting manager in the competition.

Manchester United haven’t lost any of their last three meetings with Man City in all competitions (W2 D1), last having a longer run between January 2010 and February 2011 (4).

The away team has won 10 of the last 18 Premier League meetings between Manchester United and Manchester City (D2 L6) and since the 2015-16 campaign, the only Premier League fixture with more away wins is Crystal Palace versus Liverpool (12).

Manchester United have gone eight Premier League matches at Old Trafford without keeping a clean sheet, their longest run since a run of 12 between April and December 2021. They’ve shipped 17 in nine games under Ruben Amorim, with the Portuguese coach having the worst goals conceded per game ratio of any permanent Red Devils manager on home soil in the Premier League (1.89).
