Manchester United vs Manchester City as it happened: Juan Mata goal secures derby win for Jose Mourinho's men
Relive all the action from the EFL Cup clash as the two Manchester sides went head-to-head

Manchester United welcome rivals Manchester City to Old Trafford in a re-run of last month's derby clash. Pep Guardiola's men emerged victorious then, beating United 2-1, but Jose Mourinho will be out for a convincing victory tonight as he attempts to inflict revenge on his old adversary. But like Mourinho, Guardiola has just as much reason to win. His side are without a victory in five which could extend to six should City fall short at Old Trafford - an unwelcome record for the Catalan. Follow the latest here.

EFL Cup fourth-round results - Tuesday:
Arsenal 2-0 Reading
Bristol City 1-2 Hull
Leeds 2-2 Norwich
Liverpool 2-1 Tottenham
Newcastle 6-0 Preston
Just over an hour to go to the second Manchester derby of the season. Last time the two teams met, both had a 100 per cent record, now neither seem able to buy a win - regardless of the millions spent in the summer.
There is also a pretty decent undercard with West Ham vs Chelsea and Southampton vs Sunderland, but here we are focusing on the main event - Mourinho vs Guardiola II.
Interestingly, yet again there is no place for Henrikh Mkhitaryan. Here's what our Chief Football Correspondent Mark Ogden wrote about the ex-Dortmund man this week.
