Manchester United Women's next FA Women's Super League fixture against Manchester City has been confirmed for early October. The club's official website, ManUtd.com, announced the date for the highly anticipated derby.
The match will take place in the first weekend of October. This sets up a key early-season test for Marc Skinner's side as they look to climb the table. United currently sit ninth in the WSL with zero points from their opening game, a 2-1 defeat to London City.
The confirmation comes after a difficult start to the campaign. According to ManUtd.com, manager Marc Skinner and captain Katie Zelem both addressed the team's need for a reaction following the opening-day loss. The team has scored one goal and conceded two, leaving them with a negative goal difference. They are already three points behind early leaders Liverpool in the title race.
