Nov 02, 2014 08:27 AM EST

Manchester City and Manchester United are playing live on the English Premier League schedule on Sunday for the Manchester Derby and the game from the Etihad Stadium starts at 8:30 pm ET on the NBC Sports Network on TV and streaming from the NBCSN Live Extra website online as Louis Van Gaal and Wayne Rooney take on Manuel Pellegrini and Yaya Toure.

Man United is looking to move up in the Premier League standings and Man City comes in scuffling a bit and Man Utd is hoping to take advantage. Man City lost to West Ham and Newcastle in their last matches and they also fell against CSKA Moscow and they are trying to get back into form for the derby. The team is the reigning Premier League winner and Van Gaal mentioned that City is coming in with some rough play behind them and the team has the chance to get in the right direction.

City comes into the weekend at third on the EPL table behind Southampton and Chelsea and they are six points back on the day. The team now has Manchester United on the schedule and the team can move up with a win and that could put them one point back. United has not been beaten since the Leicester matchup and they have been in much better form and Van Gaal said he has a feeling his team can get points away on Sunday.

Man City comes into things without David Silva and Rooney is coming back after a three game ban and some reports had him having an injury but he is expected to play. Rooney will be in the mix, while Radamel Falcao will be out with a leg injury and the Silva injury for Man City came in the League Cup game with Newcastle. City has won five of the last six in the Premier League between the teams and the last three and they have the chance to win at home for the game.

Man City won both games last season and they were high scoring in those matchups with seven goals and they allowed just one. The team is looking for the fourth straight win against United and that has not happened in a very long time and Man City is looking to avoid two straight losses in the EPL for the first time under Pellegrini. United smells and opening and City has been allowing goals this year and both Edin Dzeko and Sergio Aguero have put in goals in these games against Man United.

Man City has Manchester United coming up and after that they host CSKA Moscow after that matchup in the Champions League and this will be the second leg game. The team also has Swansea City and QPR coming up and those should be easy points and after that they have the matchup in the Champions League with Bayern Munich. After that they have games with Southampton and Sunderland and they also host Everton before games with Roma and Leicester City.
