Our Expert Predictions & Analysis on Manchester United vs Manchester City

Manchester United

The Red Devils are unbeaten in the English Premier League for four matches in a row, but they haven't won in three matches in a row, drawing all of them against lesser opponents. The club recently sacked Ruben Amorim as head coach, and following his resignation, Darren Fletcher has been in charge of Manchester United. It's possible that a new manager will lead the Red Devils into their upcoming crucial match against Manchester City, who will face the difficult task of achieving a positive result despite being the clear underdogs. The good news for the home team is the return of a group of players who played at the African Cup of Nations.

Manchester City

Manchester City have also drawn their last three Premier League matches and remain in pursuit of leaders Arsenal, extending their lead to six points. Pep Guardiola's side urgently need to get back on track, and their next crucial match against the Red Devils will be a good opportunity to finally secure three points. Manchester City recently advanced to the FA Cup, and crucial Champions League matches await. The club has also already made its first major transfer of the winter, signing former Bournemouth winger Antoine Semenyo, who will clearly strengthen the City squad.

This is the opening and key match of the next round of the English Premier League, where long-time and archrivals, both without a win in the current season, will battle it out to determine the winner. Both teams will be motivated to secure a positive result in this head-to-head encounter, although bookmakers rightfully see Manchester City as the clear favorite. Perhaps the managerial change will benefit Manchester United, and the Red Devils will be able to put in a more solid performance. A good bet could be on Over (3) at odds of 1.81.
