Manchester United visit its city rival Manchester City on Sunday at 18:30 in one of the biggest derbies in English football. Citizens are leaders in the standings with 65 points, which separates them from 14 of the next red devils, and if successful, they can break away from as many as 17 points and take a very serious step towards the title.

The two teams come from different positions, as Joseph Guardiola`s players make a unique series and have 21 consecutive victories in all tournaments, while those of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer ended in a draw 0:0 against Crystal Palace on Wednesday, which was the third consecutive match away from home. without a goal and already have only two victories in the last eight matches in the league. However, the Norwegian does not agree with the criticism of his players.

When the opponent does not make mistakes, you must achieve your goals with your own qualities. This is exactly what we have been missing in the last few games, but we still do not have a loss of 10 matches. A month ago the topic was that we do not defend ourselves well, now it is that we do not score enough. It`s just a week, it`s not like we`ve accumulated a series of bad results. Not so long ago we beat Southampton with 9:0 and Real Sociedad with 4:0. It all depends on the opponents, but the number of matches is also reflected. I`m not going to talk about how we`re in bad shape. Yes, the last few matches we failed to score the first goal, these 0:0 are not really us and what we want to achieve, but we defended well, commented the results of his Norwegian team.

Solskjaer then explained the situation with David De Gea, who missed the match by how to buy fixed matches in the middle of the week with Crystal Palace because he returned to Spain because of the birth of his first child. There were reports in the media that he could return only after the break of the national teams, but this was denied by the manager.

I expect it to be available soon. Of course, once he gets home, we have to follow the rules that are currently in place. The information that appeared in the press is not fair to either the fans or David. We let him go home because he wanted to be with his girlfriend. We want him back, but he is still human and we have to take that into account. David is there for this fantastic event with his family. I don`t know exactly when he will return, but it will be soon, Solskjaer explained the situation.

At present, anyone entering the territory of England must isolate himself for 10 days, but the quarantine can be terminated if he tests negative for COVID-19 on day five. Footballers have a special permit to train and play matches during this time, but only if they spend the rest of the time at home.
