Manchester City v Manchester UTD Betting Preview 

Manchester City will be looking to continue their fantastic form, having won eight of their last nine Premier League games, as they aim to catch up with Liverpool, who lead the Premier League title race by a solitary point. They come into the match having progressed to the quarter-finals of the FA Cup in style, with a thumping 6-2 win over Luton Town in midweek.

On the other hand, Manchester United will be sporting the "underdog" tag, following a disappointing loss to Fulham (1-2) in their previous league outing. However, they bounced back with an unconvincing victory against Nottingham Forest in the FA Cup. Sitting sixth in the domestic table, they are eight points behind fourth-placed Aston Villa, as they prepare to face their city rivals.

Manchester City will be seeking to secure their second league double against rivals Manchester United in three seasons, following their 3-0 victory at Old Trafford in October. The reigning champions have won five out of the six most recent Manchester derbies, with the Red Devils' sole victory being a 2-1 home win back in January 2023.
