Match Predict – Manchester City To Win
After falling behind in the first couple of weeks in the Premier League, Guardiola and his team are now eager to go back and compete at high levels to secure the first position. In their last 10 games, Manchester City is unbeaten as we expect them to host the Manchester derby and grab the full three points.
Total Goals – Over 2.5
Considering the head-to-head meetings between these two clubs as they have played a total of 32 Manchester derbies previously in all competitions, more than 50% of the games ended up with at least three goals in it the last game last season at Etihad Stadium where Manchester City won the game with a 4-1 result. We expect the scenario to be repeated.
Both teams to score
After many speculations about Ten Hag’s offensive ball, fans were disappointed however in the last six games United played, they failed to score a single goal in only one as we expect them to follow their average of eight goals in six games and score against City who conceded six goals in six games as they surely will score at least a goal after doing so 23 times in 7 games.

Manchester City vs Manchester United: Key Numbers & Markets
Manchester City:
After Pep Guardiola, the Spanish Mastermind took over to manage the Manchester club after winning many titles with Catalonia’s finest, FC Barcelona, and with the Bavarians, Bayern Munchen, in the Bundesliga, Manchester City’s mindset totally changed for the better. With Pep Guardiola, the board of directors and the owner of the club gave him the green light to sign any player he wishes to compete at higher levels as we have seen him win every local competition while missing out on the Champions League. This season, Guardiola made a historic signing by grabbing the Norwegian superstar, Erling Halland, from Dortmund who is already helping him in the Premier League by scoring 11 goals in seven games. City without Halaand had the chance to win the Premier League but will Erling make the fans’ dream to win the Champions League come true? With an amazing start in the European tournament after beating Sevilla and Dortmund in the first two rounds, Manchester City is really focused on that tournament as they also work respectively in the Premier League to stay in the top teams after grabbing two draws in the league while waiting for Arteta to drop some points with the gunners. Manchester City owns the best offence in the top 5 leagues as they have scored a total of 23 gals in 7 games which average at least 3 goals per game while defensively there were some games they conceded goals which should be adjusted by the manager.

Manchester United:
After a very devastating and underwhelming start to the Premier League season 2022-23, where the red fans lost their hope again, one more time, at the start of the season with their new Dutch manager, Erik Tan Hag, coming from Ajax, Manchester United players took the responsibility of getting up from the floor after getting beaten by two average Premier League teams, Brentford and Brighton with huge results of 4-0 and 1-2 in the first 2 opening games. After the adjustments, mental preparations, and tactical changes the manager made in addition to adding one of the most potential youngsters, Anthony, the Brazilian winger coming from Ajax as a preference from the manager, Manchester United made an unbelievable run of 4 consecutive wins in the Premier League as they started the run by beating Liverpool and ended up by beating the number one in the standings, Arsenal FC. after failing to join the Champions League next season, Manchester United are playing in the Europa League after facing their first loss against Real Sociedad and a win against FC Sheriff in the second round. Statistically speaking, Manchester United has scored and conceded the same number of goals, 8 in the league as they seek to improve their defensive stats. With Cristiano back on the scoresheet, we expect a new Manchester United in the coming weeks.
