Man City midfielder David Silva fancies a goal against Man Utd

Manchester City midfielder David Silva says they face Manchester United confident of three points.

City are back on the rails after victory over Burnley.

And Silva told City's website: "We know the derby is important for the fans and us too as when you win, it gives you a morale boost.

“Every derby match is different, just like every season is different. You can see that regardless of what position either side is in the table."

“I have scored in some recent games, but it is not all about scoring - it is about having a great game.

“Taking the three points is the most important thing… if you score or assist that's a bonus.

“The most important thing is the three points and to make ourselves and the fans happy with our performance."
