On Saturday (12:30 p.m. ET on NBCSN and Telemundo), Manchester United move on from facing their former manager to visiting rival Manchester City in the historic Manchester Derby.

Mourinho has led Tottenham to two consecutive Premier League victories, including a 3-2 victory over Bournemouth last weekend.

Three of Premier League’s top four clubs – first-place Liverpool, second-place Leicester City and fourth-place Chelsea – play on NBC Sports Gold this week.
