Man United – Man City, Premier League Prediction
ANALYSIS AND PREDICTION FOR MAN UNITED - MAN CITY
The title may be decided, and may not be solved in this game. The talk about it is pissing off every Man United fan. They strongly hope that City will take the trophy instead of Liverpool, but Red Devils can prevent this if they do not lose today. Above all, however, if United are a proud club, it should not affect them. Solskjaer is trying to make a champion mentality in this team. He was extremely disappointed after the match with Everton and told the press conference: “I will be successful here, but some of these players will not be part of this success.” Besides, the expression and manner in which the Norwegian spoke at this press conference was very eloquent. He really wants and believes that every single Manchester United player must be ready to die on the pitch for the badge, the fans and the club. Solskjaer just wants the mentality of the winners – the one he himself had all under the direction of sir Alex Ferguson and will not forgive anyone who does not think like him.
City, in turn, comes with mixed feelings. The bustle of dropping out of the Champions League has not passed and is unlikely to be over by the end of the season. Citizens can make the campaign super successful with a new title and a bonus of two domestic cups. They are the much better team and the team in a much better shape than the two in Manchester at the moment, so they have to use this, but they are not in the best psychological condition, although they have managed to beat Tottenham in the last round.
The most logical thing in the world is City to win, but what we know at 100% is that they will score at least one goal. We expect a response, we expect a fight and a lot of desire from United, contrary to the expectations of many people. They are fighting for the Top 4 and have to enter this tournament. Here the club is more important than Liverpool and the title battle. The money the club will take and everything that accompanies this tournament is the number one priority for the owners, so everyone in this business is pursuing goals. Because of the domestic factor, the local derby factor, the charge of the match and not the best psychological mind of City, and they can still make quite simple errors in defense, as we have seen lately, we expect United to score at least one goal. Prediction – BTTS at 1.67.
United have not scored a goal in the league just three times during the season at home
City has not scored a goal in the league just twice this season
