Manchester United Women v Manchester City Women live stream, Saturday 9 October, 1.30pm BST
Need a Manchester United Women v Manchester City Women live stream? We've got you covered.
The Manchester derby kicks off the weekend’s action in the Women’s Super League, with United looking to go joint-top of the table and move nine points clear of their rivals.
The Red Devils have started the season strongly with three wins in four games, losing their other game 6-1 to defending champions Chelsea.
It has been a different story for City, who travel to Leigh Sports Village with three points from four games and on a run of three consecutive defeats.
Victory for Marc Skinner’s side would send them level on points with Arsenal and Tottenham at the top, ahead of their games on Sunday against Everton and Brighton respectively.
There were three meetings between the sides last season, starting with a 2-2 draw in the league before a penalty shoot-out cup victory for United and a 3-0 home win for City in February.
Kick-off is at 1.30pm BST on Saturday, 9 October, and UK viewers can watch it on BBC One. See below for international broadcast options.

VPN guide
Use a VPN to watch Women's Super League from outside your country
If you’re out of the country for a round of fixtures, then annoyingly your domestic on-demand services won’t work – the broadcaster knows where you are because of your IP address (boo!). You'll be blocked from watching it, which is not ideal if you’ve paid up for a subscription and still want to catch Steve Bruce’s extra-red face without resorting to illegal feeds you’ve found on Reddit.
But assistance is on hand. To get around that, all you have to do is get a Virtual Private Network (VPN), assuming it complies with your broadcaster’s T&Cs. A VPN creates a private connection between your device and t'internet, meaning the service can’t work out where you are and won't automatically block the service you've paid for. All the info going between is entirely encrypted – and that's a result.
