Kick-off between Manchester United and Manchester City is just minutes away and Erik ten Hag has made no changes from the side that comfortably won against Arsenal four weeks ago – their last league game.
United were due to play against Crystal Palace and Leeds before the recent international break but both games were postponed after the tragic passing of Queen Elizabeth II.
As ever with a game of this enormity, Sky Sports are doing their pre-match coverage on the pitch and perhaps they weren’t preparing for the formality of watering the pitch.
In a hilarious broadcast moment, as Pep Guardiola underwent his pre-match media duties, the sprinklers soaked the crew and Gary Neville, in particular. The former United captain was visibly disgruntled by the mishap, as seen below.

As expected, Roy Keane was left completely unmoved by the prospect of being hit by water but Neville was far from delighted. Hopefully, the 90 minutes will be more of a treat.
