Manchester United U23’s take on Derby County at Old Trafford in the Premier League 2 this evening. United beat Villarreal 1-0 last Tuesday in a slightly delayed match due to the weather in the Greater Manchester area. Their previous two matches were 1-1 draws against both Chelsea and Manchester City, which made the result against the reigning Premier League International Cup champions was a much better result than was expected. United have the chance to get their season back on track this evening against Derby.
