THE PREDICTION

The Manchester Derby is often full of surprises, twists and turns, and the way these two sides have performed so far this season, the 182nd meeting between the Manchester clubs could be no different. City have underperformed so far, acquiring three out of their five wins from sides who have spent the majority or entirety of this season slumped in the relegation zone. United, too, have underperformed, but remarkably find themselves above City in the league, albeit by a singular point. However, these bragging rights could be short lived for the red side of Manchester, with City starting to find their footing both in the league and in Europe.
