April's Manchester derby at Old Trafford is moved to a Monday evening for television purposes.

The final Manchester derby of the season at Old Trafford has been moved to a Monday night in April.

The encounter had previously been arranged for Saturday, April 6, but will now be played two days later and will be shown live on Sky Sports.

However, should Manchester United progress beyond Real Madrid and advance into the quarter-finals of the Champions League, the derby encounter will be moved back to the original date.

United currently hold a 12-point lead over rivals Manchester City at the top of the Premier League table.
