Manchester City v Manchester United preview

November 8th, 2018 14:06

This weekend is the Manchester Derby. Usually this fixture produces good games with lots of goals and drama. It is even more intensified these days by the rivalry between Guardiola and Mourinho. Both teams won last night in the Champions League, with United beating Juventus late on 1-2 and City beating Shakhtar comprehensively 6-0 at home.

Manchester United started the season off quite poorly and there were even rumors that Mourinho was going to lose his job. However, since October their results have gotten better. Many of their recent matches they have gone down a goal and had to come back to win the game. This shows a lack of concentration, but it also shows the resilience and firepower the squad has. United currently are nine points behind city in the Premier League and if they lose on Sunday their title challenge will be over only three months into the season. However, if they can beat City at the Etihad then they will be six points behind them and right back in the mix.

Lukaku is a doubt for the match as he missed the last two matches. He has been training alone in a bid to try to make the squad for the weekend. Valencia is also unlikely to feature as he is not fully fit yet after his minor surgery.

Manchester City on the other hand have started the season just how they left off in last season. They currently are top of the Premier League two points ahead of Liverpool in second. So far this season they have not lost in the league and only drawn two matches. Nevertheless, City have not had the best record against United since Guardiola took over. In fact, in their last eight matches City have only won two, with United winning four, and two draws taking place. Guardiola will try to make sure that his team put this stat to bed.

Gundogan and Otamendi were back in the squad for the Champions League game and should be in the squad this weekend. De Bruyne and Claudio Bravo are both on the sidelines.

Key stats

  • They have 42 times in the Premier League
  • United winning 21, City 13, and eight draws.
  • United were last team to beat City at home in the league
  • Last match united came from two goals down to win the game 2-3

    Superb! Easy to purchase a ticket. I had a live customer service chat once, the staff member was so polite, helpful and informative. I loved the communication after purchase. On the match day they contacted me on WhatsApp if I want an upgrade on my tickets for free and after my confirmation I got my tickets within a minute. Great experience, thank you.

    This is the best and most trusted website to get your tickets to any world event. I have used them 3 times throughout the years, I have used other sites for football matches and they are so transparent and fast, the first time I used them was in 2018 for a Roma match and then made the mistake to use a different site for the PSG match in April and they were terrible, from the website, customer service and responses. this is the only site I trust and use!

    Bought 2 Club Wembley tickets less than 48 hours before the Championship Play Off Final. Good communication and tickets arrived the following day by email. No problems getting into the stadium and seats were great. Unfortunately my team’s performance was the only let down. Would definitely use this company again.

    It was easier than I thought to find a group of seven seats together and very simple to book. Communication was excellent, the tickets were sent quickly and were easy to access, so no problems at the stadium. Seats were good and we had a great view. Everything worked well and I'll definitely be back for tickets again - many thanks!

    I flew all the way from Australia to watch Arsenal vs Burnley. They have amazing customer service. They answered and replied to all my inquiries within a few minutes. I received the ticket on time, and the instructions and support were excellent. It was my first experience, and I will definitely use their service again in the future.
