We should only be surprised if Manchester United are in the relegation zone, because overall there is nothing to be proud of from The Red Devils this season. Next, Manchester United will face Manchester City, and it is very likely that they will experience another defeat. Fortunately, Ruben Amorim squad showed a different performance in the Europa League, which I think saved face in front of the fans. In 30 matches, The Red Devils have lost 13 times, drawn 7 times and won 10 times. In addition, the goal productivity and the number of goals conceded are also very worrying, where they have only been able to score 37 goals and conceded 41 goals. These statistics do not reflect at all that they are one of the elite clubs in the Premier League.
Manchester United must win the derby tonight to save their reputation.
In terms of achievements, MU has more trophies than Manchester City, which has just risen in the last 10 years, so they must win it to prove who is the best in Manchester.
But of course we would doubt MU can win the derby because on terms of the squad, Manchester City have better players on each line, even play on Old Trafford.
Realistically, Even MU won it on 1st match at Etihad Stadium, but I am sure, Manchester United can only hold the draw for this time, and hard to get 3 points tonight, because Manchester City is very familiar with this derby, and Pep has done the typical MU player, and already knows how to face it.
