Manchester United forward Nikita Parris says they can compete with rivals Manchester City but they need to learn from previous experiences in the derby.

They go head-to-head at Etihad Stadium on Saturday with 12 points separating City and fourth-placed United.

Marc Skinner's side have slipped down the table since then, with Parris admitting they have been "naive" in big moments. "We're definitely not where we want to be. The reality is we need points to go on our side and games out of our control to go our way. We have to take care of business and, in all honesty, we haven't, especially in the big games.

She has netted eight goals in 15 appearances, averaging a goal every 115 minutes - bettered only by her 2018-19 season at Manchester City - while her conversion rate is the most prolific in her career. "I just want to keep going. The easiest thing for me to have done was to give up. I could have made them think 'she's not fighting for it' so I just want to get my head down and do well for Manchester United."
