At the start of November 1986 Nick Berry was Top of the Pops with Every Loser Wins. It's not a sentiment ever accepted by Sir Alex Ferguson. This weekend he celebrates 25 years in charge of the club. The song that became number one in his first week in the job was Take My Breath Away. The most successful manager in British football history has been doing that ever since he sat in the Old Trafford hot-seat.

He's built teams. He's broken them. He's rebuilt them. Always, he's kept winning. Thirty-seven trophies have been collected. He has signed big names and made them giants. He has turned boys into legends.

How fitting it is that Steve Bruce should be the visiting manager for the silver anniversary celebrations. As captain, he led United to their first league title under Ferguson in 1993 - ending a painful 26-year wait for the club. He personified his manager's ruthless never-say-die winning spirit on the pitch. His two goals at home to Sheffield Wednesday in April of that year, the second well into stoppage time, propelled United above Villa. From there, they never lost top spot.

Bruce has never beaten his old mentor as a manager in 17 attempts. Sunderland haven't won at United since 1968 either. Despite an improved run of late with just one defeat in four games, they shouldn't spoil the party this time.

United simply must atone for the misery of their last home league game - the 6-1 thrashing by title rivals Manchester City. They haven't conceded in three games since then. Sir Alex read the riot act, just as he's been doing for 25 years - and it worked yet again.

Half of his squad weren't even born when he took charge. But they all know his demands. They all know the legacy. A successive home defeat will not be an option

* Sunderland have only won one of 20 Premier League matches between the clubs: a 2-1 home victory in 1997.
* Overall, the clubs have met on 131 occasions. United have won 56 times, Sunderland 39.

Manchester United

* United scored 21 goals in their first five Premier League games of the season, but have mustered just six in their past five league matches.
* The Red Devils have used seven different defensive combinations so far this season across 10 league games.
* Scottish midfielder Darren Fletcher is on the verge of his 300th Manchester United appearance.

Sunderland

* They have won once on the road in the league so far this season, a 2-0 win over Bolton in their last away match on 22 October.
