Because their fans can be trusted to behave.

Cause it's a sanitised game attended by mostly tourists.

Not a proper derby in a month of Sundays.

Not sure you can call it a derby if the one team doesn't mind losing because it stops Liverpool winning the league...

Not so sure about calling it a non-derby. That was some 'limbs' (as the yoof say) in the Utd end after Rashford's goal. Tell those fans it's not a hotly contested derby. 

Of course I'm aware Utd's true rivals are Liverpool, before anyone calls me out.
