Manchester City face their fierce local rivals, Manchester Unite,d in the Premier League this weekend.
If this season were a rollercoaster, it would be one that has hurled mostly downwards at frightening speeds for Manchester City.

Pep Guardiola’s side advanced to the FA Cup semi-finals and eased to victory over Leicester City on Wednesday.
Next up, City will take on Manchester United in the final Manchester derby of the season and fans will be begging to at least get some bragging rights back after the loss at the Etihad Stadium.
Here is everything you need to know about the fixture.
