Man Utd vs Man City prediction, stats, tips & team news

Ruben Amorim will be bidding for his second straight Manchester Derby victory over Pep Guardiola as Manchester United welcome bitter rivals Manchester City to Old Trafford on Sunday 6th April at 4:30pm.

Both sides have endured turbulent seasons, but none more so than the Red Devils, who are still meandering in mid-table. This game will be broadcast live on Sky Sports Premier League.

Man Utd to win and BTTS (9/2 with bet365)

Man Utd won their last Premier League game 3-0 against Leicester City and and haven’t lost in the league since a 1-0 defeat to Tottenham Hotspur on 16th February. Having said that, that win over the Foxes was their first clean sheet since January.

Man City to score first (4/6 with Betfair)

Man City’s inconsistent form has been notable this season but there can be no doubt about their goalscoring ability. Erling Haaland has hit his stride once again and has netted five times in his last seven games for Guardiola’s men. In all of those games in which he scored, he netted Man City’s first goal.

Man Utd vs Man City Odds

How both teams go into Man Utd vs Man City

Man Utd were unbeaten in four Premier League games, winning two and drawing the other two before succumbing to a 1-0 defeat against Nottingham Forest. They’re also through to the Europa League quarter-finals after seeing off Real Sociedad, so things are looking up for Amorim at the club, finally. They’re still 13th in the Premier League but were starting to see the potential of how this team can play in the Portuguese coach’s 3-4-3 system.

As for Man City, Guardiola will be concerned that their place in the top five is at stake, with English clubs likely to be handed an additional spot in next season’s Champions League. They’ve suffered a huge fall from grace this season after winning the last four Premier League titles in a row and are now 22 points behind leaders Liverpool. While they arrested a horrendous mid-season slump that saw them win once in 11 games, they still can’t find any consistency and only have two victories in their last five matches.

Man Utd team news

Man Utd still have one of the worst injury records in the top flight with three players set to be out for the season in Lisandro Martinez, Amad Diallo and Luke Shaw. Meanwhile, Kobbie Mainoo has been out since February and could be in the running for this game.

Ayden Heaven suffered an injury scare before the international break but his problem is not as bad as first thought and could be back in the squad in the coming weeks. It’s hoped that Leny Yoro and Harry Maguire could be back in time to face Man City.

Man City team news 

Man City are also one of the worst-hit teams as far as injuries are concerned. Oscar Bobb is back in the first team set up after missing most of the season through a fractured leg but is lacking match fitness. Rodri is not expected to be back this season while Nathan Ake and John Stones are battling just to feature before the end of the campaign. Manuel Akanji should be back at some point this month but won’t make the Man Utd clash, while Bernardo Silva doesn’t have a return date.

Man Utd vs Man City head to head

This is always an exciting and frenetic encounter, but Man City usually get the better of Man Utd on the whole. They’ve only lost two of the last six in the Premier League, winning the other four.
