Riyad Mahrez scored the only goal after 55 minutes for Pep Guardiola's City who claim a fifth straight league win. Liverpool have the chance to return to the top when they take on Everton in the Merseyside derby on Sunday (16:15 GMT). Romelu Lukaku fired United ahead and then scored an 88th-minute winner after James Ward-Prowse's exquisite free-kick had given Saints hope of winning a point. The victory sees United move above Arsenal, who were held 1-1 by north London rivals Tottenham in the day's early kick-off at Wembley. Two goals in two minutes from Diogo Jota and Raul Jimenez ensured the home side remain on course for a seventh-place finish.
