Our Prediction Tip

Manchester City will win this match.

Manchester United won three of their four matches against Manchester City last season, though it was the one loss that helped City through to the Carabao Cup Final. Bernardo Silva’s stunning goal was the highlight of what was eventually a 3-2 aggregate win. In the league, United won 2-1 at the Etihad after Marcus Rashford’s penalty and Anthony Martial’s strike. Nicolas Otamendi scored for City late on. At Old Trafford, meanwhile, Martial opened the scoring and Scott McTominay pounced on Ederson’s goalkeeping error late on to secure a 2-0 home win. Here are the results of their last five matches: 

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
Dec 07, 2019: Manchester City 1-2 Manchester United
Apr 24, 2019: Manchester United 0-2 Manchester City

Manchester City have found form again and this is a big test of that as they look to get one over their Manchester rivals. Pep Guardiola was guilty of over-thinking these matches last season but if City play their natural game, they will win.
City are unbeaten in their last five matches, keeping clean sheets in all of them.

Manchester City will look to continue their good form and reclaim Manchester derby bragging rights after a couple of defeats in this fixture last season. The match against Manchester United takes place at Old Trafford on Saturday December 12 and the live action gets underway at 17:30 local time.
