Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has warned that his team will need to change their approach if they are to overcome Manchester City in the League Cup semi-finals.
United's 2-1 league win over City earlier this month was a notable upset, but Solskjaer believes that City will be a different proposition when they meet again in January.
City, who are defending their Premier League title, stayed on course to lift the League Cup for a third consecutive season after overcoming Oxford United 3-1 in the quarter-finals.
United, meanwhile, powered past fourth-tier Colchester United 3-0 in the quarter-finals.
‘You won’t beat City twice in a row or three times with the same tactics, so we’ll have to do something better than we did last time because I’m sure Pep will have his team fired up,’ Solskjaer said.
United host the first leg of the semi-final on January 7, with the return scheduled for January 28.
