Manchester United in important derby without Kunya: who will replace the forward.

According to The Sun: Today Manchester United faces Manchester City at the Etihad Stadium in an important match!

The Red Devils secured their first victory of the season in the last match when Bruno Fernandes' last-minute penalty in the 97th minute gave the team a 3-2 win over league newcomers, Burnley.

Fernandes' last-minute penalty helped the team win against Burnley with a score of 3-2.

Ruben Amorim remembers his visit to the Etihad last year, where his team won 2-1 in their first meeting with the opponent.

The former Sporting coach hopes to repeat that success, as City has suffered two consecutive defeats.

Why is Matheus Kunya not playing for Manchester United against Manchester City?

Kunya suffered a hamstring injury during the match against Burnley and had to leave the field in the 30th minute of the game.

Kunya later withdrew from international matches for the Brazil national team, raising concerns about his participation in today's derby.

On Friday, Amorim confirmed that Kunya, as well as Mason Mount and Diogo Dalot, would not be able to make it to the match at the Etihad.

Due to the injuries of two key forwards, new striker Benjamin Sesko, who was signed for £74 million, may debut in the Premier League.
