Man City v Man Utd preview and tips

Manchester City has the priority of European glory. They held Dynamo Kiev goalless in two matches, winning 3-1 in Kiev and drawing 0-0 at home. City reached the Champions League quarter-finals, but they need to keep the 4th place in the current Premier League. If they win today in the Manchester derby, they will have made a huge step forward.

Man City has 4 wins in the last 6 against United and Aguero has scored 7 in 7 Premier League games with their rivals.

In the Citizen’s game with Dynamo, captain Vincent Kompany got injured for once more and is unavailable for Sunday’s huge derby against Manchester United at the Etihad Stadium. The Belgian central defender will be out for about a month.

As well as the absence of Kompany, fellow central defender Otamendi could also be doubtful. Midfielders De Bruyne, Delph and Nasri are close to a return but will not feature today.

 

United have themselves endured a difficult campaign, and suffered the indignity of a Europa League exit at the hands of Liverpool on Thursday (1-1). As soon as they received a goal everything finished and they never got their motivation back to battle at least for the win.

Manchester United have only won just one of their last eight Premier League away games (1-3-4). They still chase the 4th spot but they will need to win today to increase their chances of achieving it. With performances like the one in West Brom it will be difficult though.

Herrera is a doubt for United with the groin issue that forced him to miss the last Europa League fixture.

Rooney, Shaw, Jones and Keane remain sidelined.

Our bet: The battle of the… troubled. Man City should make the big step to finish in the top 4 today and United looks incapable of stopping them with their current form.

Home win for Man City (17/20, 1.85)
