THE PREDICTION
First place in the Premier League hosts second place in a big Manchester Derby this Sunday as Man City and Man Utd do battle at the Etihad Stadium. Pep Guardiola’s league leaders are looking unstoppable at present, having won their last 21 matches in all competitions. However, they come up against a United side unbeaten in 21 Premier League games away from home. As you’d expect in a derby match, an aggressive affair is expected although recent battles between these two have seen little in the way of goals. Under 2.5 goals have been scored in their last four encounters in all competitions between the two teams and the same is expected in this one regardless of the final result, with the visitors having conceded just one goal in their last three Premier League games.
