Manchester City goalkeeper Ederson says that his side are capable of beating derby rivals Manchester United when the teams clash on Sunday.

Manchester City goalkeeper Ederson has said that his side are capable of beating derby rivals Manchester United when the teams clash on Sunday.

The City stopper will be looking to keep out United's attack and extend the club's lead at the top of the Premier League to 11 points.

The Argentine, who has said that he knows the importance of this fixture to both sides, also claimed that City have a decent chance of victory on Sunday.

"It would be important [to move 11 points clear]," Ederson told the Manchester Evening News. "I'm calm. I'm just going to keep working the same way, with the same calm and concentration as usual to give the best to the team.

"It's always important to keep a distance with our direct opponents, but we are going to keep working no matter what, focused on our job and try to win there.

"Of course we can [win]. We are aware of how difficult and complicated the game is going to be, being a derby."

Pep Guardiola's side travel to Swansea City following their clash against United.
