We play at home with the fans."It's a derby, we have confidence, we feel really strong and we want to win. "The team is in a good moment, we won two difficult away games so we have confidence and we know we play an important game. We really want to win." United will be without the suspended Paul Pogba when City arrive at Old Trafford, but Mourinho has offered positive updates on other members of his squad hoping to play some part in a crunch clash. Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Phil Jones come back into contention after shaking off knocks, while Nemanja Matic is available for selection and Marouane Fellaini will face a late fitness check.</blockquote>
