Manchester United vs Manchester City Prediction & Betting Tips - Premier League
by Steve Ashfield | in Premier League Predictions
It's a weekend of derby matches in the Premier League. Fourth placed Manchester United will look to continue their good run of form with a home win over Manchester City who are second in the table. United did something City didn't in midweek and that's qualify for the Carabao Cup semi-finals. Back in the Premier League a point from this fixture will take them into third place above Newcastle who don't play until Sunday. For City, it's the chance to cut the gap between them and leaders Arsenal to just two points with the Gunners playing at Tottenham the following day. United are nine points off the top of the table but a win here will take them to within a point of City. Above anything though, it's a time for bragging rights among the United and City fans.

Manchester United - Manchester City: Form Analysis
Manchester United made a shaky start under their new boss but there's been great improvement in recent months. Ten Haag has won 20 competitive fixtures than any other United manager. His team comes into this game having won eight league and cup games since being beaten at Aston Villa just before the World Cup break in November. Their last three games have all been at home, all being won and three goals scored by them in each fixture. United have won four successive home Premier League games and not conceded in the last five. In all competitions they've won ten and drawn one (against Newcastle) in their last 11 games at Old Trafford with nine clean sheets. Those games haven't seen them up against Erling Haaland though.
This is a vital game for Manchester City whose hopes of a domestic treble ended when losing at Southampton in the Carabao Cup. They are five points behind leaders Arsenal, closing the gap by two points last week after the Gunners could only draw with Newcastle. Pep Guardiola's team had gone five league and cup games unbeaten before that midweek loss. City's away form in the Premier League is impressive with three wins in a row since the defeat at Liverpool. That's their only loss in their last 26 Premier League games on the road. They beat United 6-3 at home in the reverse fixture and have four points from their last two league visits to Old Trafford.

Both teams made changes for their midweek Carabao Cup and stronger line-ups will be fielded for this Premier League game. United are hopeful that Diogo Dalot will be fit for this game.

Marcus Rashford has scored in eight successive home matches equalling Wayne Rooney's record, can be take sole ownership of that record with another goal this Saturday?
Manchester City will be without Ruben Dias but hope that John Stones will be fit enough to play. Haaland and De Bruyne were on the subs bench in midweek but they'll start this match. Haaland and Foden will be looking to continue their good form against United after both scored hat-tricks in the reverse fixture. In defence Nathan Ake might get the nod over Joao Cancelo and Sergio Gomez. egin at left-back. Riyad Mahrez is also likely to start the match and he's been in good scoring form of late.
