We have most wins against Manchester City in Premier League history - as we travel to the Sky Blue half of Manchester again on Saturday (12.30pm), how does our record stack up in City's Etihad era?

We've chalked up 29 wins against City since the first season of the Premier League in 1992/93. Our first Premier League meeting against the Citizens was at their famous old Maine Road stadium, a 1-0 win back on 28 November, 1992, thanks to a Terry Phelan own goal.

If we take into account the full Premier League years - including the final years of City at Maine Road - then we just hold the upper hand in Manchester with 12 wins to City's 11 in 28 matches.

However, if we're just talking about City at the Etihad (previously City of Manchester Stadium) then City's transformation since 2010 turns the tide around. City moved from Maine Road into what was Manchester's 2002 Commonweath Games stadium for the start of the 2003/04 season.

We started well with five wins in our first seven visits - including that crucial, Champions League qualifying victory in May, 2010 - but then City hit back with five wins on the trot.

It's been tight since then with four wins to City, three draws and three wins to us. There have also been some remarkable matches in recent seasons when the scorelines read 2-3, 4-2, 3-3 and our 0-4 victory last term.
