Historical or Current Form?
Let’s start by saying that Manchester City won the last four matches against United... The problem for the Citizens is that they arrive to the Theater of Dreams on awful form. Unimaginable only a couple of months ago, that City could widen the gap to this extent between themselves and Chelsea. Yaya Toure's team mates have dropped too many points on the road and have faced too much disappointment in all competitions, which may see us waving goodbye to Pellegrini at the end of the season…
Guess who took advantage of the poor form to regain their place on the podium in the League? Armed with five consecutive wins in the Premier League, the Red Devils, driven by an irresistible offensive form are sweeping aside anything that crosses their path. United should feel confident enough to win against City, which should help fans forget some of the previous painful memories of this derby, but above all take four points ahead of their neighbors in the race for 3rd place to qualify directly for the Champions League.
The overwhelming dynamics of Manchester United surely places them in a favorable position for Rooney and his team-mates not to take this one at à 6/4 at .
