From being compared to some of the best teams in the world to winning all their games in 2021, Manchester City have been undeniably good.
Some of us are running out of words trying to describe Pep Guardiola’s juggernaut. February was supposed to be a tough month for them as they faced the likes of Tottenham, Liverpool and Arsenal. However, the Citizens have made light work of them all.
With this kind of form, the other half of the city must be green with envy.
For Manchester United, they’re the closest side to Man. City on the log table – that’s if 14-point gap between the two sides is not a gap too wide to be considered ‘close.’ Being one of the few sides Man. City has yet to defeat this season, they will be hoping to keep it that way when they play them in the derby.

But how do you defeat a side that has not lost a game since November? It’s been over 90 days since Manchester City lost a game. While Manchester United have the unbeaten run of their own, 10, it’s nothing compared to what City have managed so far.
Man. United have won only four of their last 10 games, with the last three being goalless draws. If they’re to take anything away from this game, the Red Devils will look to replicate their recent history against Man. City

Since taking over as Manchester United boss, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has defeated Pep Guardiola three times. While Pep has also defeated his counterpart three defeats, only once did a game between both managers end in a draw.
Since 2016, the Etihad Stadium has been a happy hunting ground for the Red Devils in the Premier League. Between then and now, five Manchester derby games have been played, with Man. United winning three of them. The last three editions of the derby also produced at least three goals.

For Pep’s men, it’s all about finishing the league season strong – one that they seem destined to be crowned champions of. It’s very easy for complacency to set in at this stage. But there are still a few records in sight that Pep’s men will be gunning for. And that’s the main reason, asides their utter dominance in recent games, why they are favorites to win this one.
With no major names on the injury list and a plethora of stars to choose from, only the football gods can deny City a win in this one.
