Manchester United vs Manchester City: prediction for the English Premier League game
On Saturday, Man United welcome their cross-town rivals to Old Trafford for the Premier League match. What to expect from the Manchester derby? Look out for our prediction below.
Command Analysis
Manchester United
EnglandEarlier this week, Manchester United got a clean-sheet victory over Charlton (3:0) in the League Cup. This was their sixth win in a row, including the victory over Everton (3:1) in the first round of the FA Cup. In the Premier League, the Red Devils have 35 points from 11 victories and two draws. Currently, they are in 4th place in the stadings, just four points behind Man City.
Erik ten Hag's men are the outsiders in this fixture, but they might not feel like ones. They haven't conceded in almost five hours of football and are unbeaten in seven home Premier League games.
MU will be without Dalot, van de Beek, Tuanzebe, and Sancho.
Manchester City
EnglandAfter two excellent victories over Chelsea in the cup and the league, the City team got knocked out of the EFL Cup by Southampton (0:2). This, however, only helps them focus on the title race. Manchester City scored ten goals in the last two derbies, and they need only three more to set a new record for most goals scored against MU by one opponent in a season.
The upcoming game will be Pep Guardiola's 500th as the head coach - he has 245 games in the Premier League and 254 in both La Liga and Bundesliga. 76% of those games were won by his charges. Before the start of this round,the Sky-Blues are in 2nd place in the table with 39 points to their name.
Stones and Dias have been ruled out of this fixture.

Our prediction — total over 3 goals
Mark Rashford has scored in three consecutive games, and the Red Devils will hope he finds the goal in the upcoming game against Man City, too. Both sides are highly motivated, but we give a slight edge to the home team.
