Manchester City will of course be very favourites, in terms of strength they are stronger than Manchester United this season and Manchester City will also be playing at home. Of course they have much greater motivation to win the match, especially now that Manchester City is competing for the title. PL so indeed Manchester City cannot lose 3 points in every match.
But what you have to remember, this is a Manchester derby match which has quite high tension, so I don't think that this match will be easy for Manchester City and the percentage of surprises will also be quite large because of the high tension of the match.
This is a match full of prestige for both teams, thus I think the match will be quite fierce and no goal is too much for a team
For that reason, I will not risk betting on Man United. because it is true that in every aspect the strengths of the two seem clearly different. Erik Ten Hag has not been able to solve Pep Guardiola strategy on the field. This situation is also supported by several Man United players such as Hojlund who are confirmed to be absent. Rashford is no longer the player we know, he is getting duller under Erik Ten Hag. The build up that Ten Hag always implements is monotonous and none of it is effective. Onana, as usual against Man City, will be very stressed, the attacks built by Pep Guardiola certainly have a level of sharpness that is difficult to stop. Kevin de Bruyne in onfire mode made Man City's victory above all else.
