Why Man City vs Man United is the hardest ticket in Manchester
The first Manchester derby on record was played on 12 November 1881, and by mid-September 2026 the two clubs had met 199 times in competitive games: 81 United wins, 63 City wins and 55 draws. City took the first derby of 2026-27, 1-0 at Old Trafford. For the return at the Etihad there is no general sale: tickets go to season-ticket holders and Cityzens members with the strongest attendance record, and United receive the standard away allocation in the South Stand.
