Comments:

League position: 13th . This became the second time that Manchester United had lost a home game in the Premier after playing against ten men due to a red card for more than an hour: previously versus Everton on 24 November 2025 when Idrissa Gueye was dismissed in the 13th minute. . United had now failed to score in three of their last 30 games in the Premier League. . The Red Devils avoided conceding more than one goal in four consecutive home league games for the first time since January 1972 in League Division One (four).

Comments:

League position: 2nd . Manchester City had now become the first team to win their opening four games of a season in the Premier League for a seventh time (previously six by Chelsea). . The Citizens had now become the sixth team to score 2,500 goals in their away games in the top division (played 1,945, conceded 3,267). . Phil Foden had now become the second City player to be sent off in a Manchester derby in the Premier League after Bernardo Corradi at Old Trafford on 9 December 2006. . Erling Haaland's goal was initially disallowed for offside but the decision was subsequently overturned following a VAR review.
