THE PREDICTION
On derby day, form gets thrown out the window and Man City have come unstuck on home turf against their biggest rivals in previous seasons. In fact, the last three Manchester derbies in all competitions to be played at the Etihad Stadium have seen United emerge victorious over City. The Red Devils won’t be phased by the offensive threat of their opponents and will look to push bodies forward themselves to provide support for Cristiano Ronaldo and give themselves the best chances of creating opportunities in front of goal. However, Man City themselves know the importance of three points here in their quest to stay well clear of second-placed Liverpool and will likely attempt to dictate the tempo of play here, dominating possession and utilising their midfield creativity led by Kevin De Bruyne to carve out openings. The expectation is that this should prove a high-scoring encounter and both teams to score has to be favoured, regardless of who comes out on top.
Tip: BOTH TEAMS TO SCORE
