Manchester City vs Manchester Utd: Preview and Prediction

England Premier League
Saturday 7th April 2018
Kick off at 5:30pm BST
Venue: Etihad Stadium

Match Preview:

The game of the weekend in England will see both Manchester teams lock horns in what is an incredibly important game for both sides. For Manchester City if they win this they will be the champions, for United this match is about ruining that momentum, making City wait and inflicting the clubs first loss at home whilst trying to maintain 2nd position. As a side show there is no love lost between the great managers Pep Guardiola and Jose Mourinho and this will be a must watch match for any follower of football.

For City this has already been a nightmare week in a flawless season as they lost 3-0 in the Champions League quarter final 1st leg to Liverpool. Their hopes now hang from a thread and the 2nd leg is just 3 days after this game. It is impossible to think that the players can 100% fully concentrate on this game with such a huge match to come. Of course this is the game to become champions and what a way to do it against your rival.

Manchester United will be highly motivated for this tie but the doubt remains that Mourinho will not want to lose the match and pack the midfield and defence, in the hopes of sapping up the pressure and scoring on the counter.
