Cristiano Ronaldo's stoppage-time goal helped Manchester United snatch a 2-2 draw away at Atalanta in midweek and avoid a disheartening defeat ahead of the cross-city derby against Manchester City on Saturday at Old Trafford.

The Red Devils could only pick up a point against La Dea on Tuesday and they have now set sights on the Manchester derby, with Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's job still in danger following their 5-0 defeat to Liverpool.

Paul Pogba will not be at the Norwegian coach's disposal, as he will be serving the second of a three-game suspension, which he received after being sent off against Liverpool.

Raphael Varane will be sidelined for a month after picking up a hamstring injury, just a few days after fully recovering from a previous issue. Victor Lindelof missed out on the Atalanta clash due to a knock, but he is expected to return to action in the Manchester derby.

Meanwhile, Pep Guardiola won't be able to play Aymeric Laporte, who is suspended after being shown a red card in Manchester City's 2-0 defeat at home to Crystal Palace last weekend.

Ferran Torres is the only Sky Blues player who is expected to miss out on this clash due to injury, one that he picked up while on international duty in October.

Following their convincing 4-1 victory over Club Brugge on Wednesday, Manchester City will look to get back to winning ways in the Premier League on Saturday ahead of November's international break.
