Manchester City vs. Manchester United match analysis

Will The Citizens win fourth derby in a row?

Both teams do not spoil their fans. Red Devil after 9 rounds are at 8th place, City is 3rd but is 6 points away from Chelsea. Both teams recently do not play well although it seems that away team from week to week seems to play better and better which cannot be stated when it comes to home team. The Citizen present themselves weakly in Champions League (one lost, 2 draws), yesterday they’ve lost a cup match against Newcastle 0:2, before they lost a league match against West Ham United 2:1. Although the team has a potential and tends to play excellent football (for instance in a first half of match against CSKA) there are times when it is hard to play well, and these times destroy all the effort. For players at this level it is not acceptable and that is why I see a chances of Manchester United to obtain a good result. In such prestigious match each player will do his best, and because in the Manchester there are good players they will be capable of getting a tie. I know that statistics are for City because they have won 3 direct matches in a row, however I look more closely at a current shape of players which leads me to a conclusion that points gained in this match will be divided among two teams. Bookmakers set odds for City at 1,85, for a draw at 3,60 and for away team’s win at 4,00. In general this match is hard to tip. Although I got a draw from my analysis I will not play it. Both team did not have stabilised shape in recent matches and because of that for me this match is “no bet”.
