City's players were in a fine mood at Friday's training session ahead of the 198th Manchester derby...
We face Manchester United at Old Trafford at 12:30 (UK) on Saturday, looking to return to winning ways in the Premier League.
Before recent cup victories over Exeter City and Newcastle United, we were held to three successive draws in the league.
That’s left us on 43 points from 21 games and six points behind leaders Arsenal, as we turn for home in the 2025/26 campaign.
However, a Manchester derby is about much more than just the three points.
City have an excellent record at Old Trafford, winning nine times in the Premier League era - more than anyone else.
With all eyes on what should be a thrilling clash, the Blues were put through their paces earlier today.
Check out the best photos from the session below...
