Premier League
In the first round, Man. City recorded a convincing away victory against Wolves. However, they followed it up with two losses – at home to Tottenham and away to Brighton. Thus, for the first time in the Guardiola era and since 2004, City has lost two of their first three matches of the season. City is also winless in regular time in their last four meetings with United, so they need to be cautious again.
The season hasn't started any better for Manchester United. They needed a late penalty in the last match to secure their first victory, 3:2 at home against Burnley. Despite this, United currently has one point more than City and is ahead of them in the table due to the 1:1 draw in their away match against Fulham. After the first three rounds, United is the team with the most shots in the Premier League, but their efficiency seems to be lacking despite their entirely new attack.
Prediction: both teams to score, +1.5 AH for UnitedBoth teams need improvement. City remains the favorite, but they have been struggling in derbies against United lately. Therefore, I don't believe there will be a significant difference in the final score, and it is quite likely that both teams will score in the match, as they have not been convincing defensively so far.
