Manchester United and Manchester City will face off in a highly anticipated Premier League match. City is currently in second place while United sits in eighth. Both teams have had different starts to the season. The match is expected to be a thrilling encounter between the rivals.
Manchester United and Manchester City go head to head for the first time this season on Sunday as the two sides face off in the Premier League.
United and City met three times last season, with City beating Erik ten Hag's side 2-1 in the FA Cup final in the most recent encounter. Both sides beat each other in the league last season, with Erling Haaland and Phil Foden grabbing hat tricks in a 6-3 win before United won 2-1 at Old Trafford later on in the Premier League campaign.
We predict that City could set up in a 4-2-3-1 formation, with their line-up as follows: Ederson; Walker, Dias, Stones, Gvardiol; Rodri, Kovacic, Alvarez; Bernardo, Haaland, Doku. Bernardo Silva's cross into the box was headed towards goal by Rodri at the far post, Andre Onana made a great save to tip the effort over the bar. From the resulting corner, a low cross was flicked on towards Haaland at the back post, and the striker powered a header into the net from close range.
