Our Prediction Tip

Manchester City will win this match.

Manchester United have, on the one hand, had the better of this fixture in recent seasons but on the other they have lost two League Cup semi-finals to City in that time and failed to score against them in two matches this season. After winning away and home in the league last season, either side of City’s two-legged Carabao Cup semi-final triumph on aggregate, this season’s reverse league fixture ended in a goalless draw at Old Trafford. Less than a month later, John Stones and Fernandinho scored as City won 2-0 in the single-legged semi-final at Old Trafford. Here are the results of their last five matches: 

Jan 06, 2021: Manchester United 0-2 Manchester City
Dec 12, 2020: Manchester United 0-0 Manchester City
Mar 08, 2020: Manchester United 2-0 Manchester City
Jan 29, 2020: Manchester City 0-1 Manchester United 
Jan 07, 2020: Manchester United 1-3 Manchester City

Man City Predicted Starting Line-up

Man United Predicted Starting Line-up

Expected Line-up: 4-2-3-1

Manchester City's record at home in the Derby in recent years is actually quite poor and yet there is no way you can back against the moment. United have faltered ever since they touched the top of the league earlier this season whereas City have thrived in the same position. Their winning streak means you have to bet on City at the moment.
Manchester City continued their winning streak in mid-week, to take it to 21 consecutive matches in all competitions.

Manchester City’s winning streak is on the line once again as Manchester United make the short trip from Trafford to Manchester for the 185th Manchester Derby. League leaders City go into the game 14 points clear of second-placed United and their bid to move 17 points ahead and stretch their winning streak to 22 matches takes place on March 7. The live action is scheduled to start at the Etihad Stadium at 16:30 local time.
